2783	directories opening in the wrong panel	tempUser	andrew_b	"$ mc --help

 mc [OPTION...] [+number] [this_dir] [other_panel_dir]

According to this, if i do, say

$ mc / /tmp

/ should open in the left pane, and /tmp should open in the right pane. But with the latest version, they are opening in the opposite panes, i.e., the one which should open in the left pane is opening in the right, and vice versa.
