3208	Failed gpm connect attempt ... for vc /dev/tty0	onlyjob	andrew_b	"As reported in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=743566

Sometimes when running on virtual terminal, under screen(1), MC is super slow, 
consuming 50% of CPU, and spewing literally hundreds of messages like 
this to syslog:

{{{
mc: *** info
mc: Warning: closing connection
/usr/sbin/gpm[2296]: *** warning [daemon/processconn.c(133)]:
/usr/sbin/gpm[2296]: Failed gpm connect attempt by uid 500 for vc /dev/tty0
}}}

I couldn't reproduce it but reporter claims it's been OK with MC_4.8.3
so something could get broken in MC_4.8.11 or earlier.

The following ticket seems related: #3011.
