mc4.8.23_1.diff

Hi basil,

Thanks for your patch. This has also been discussed on the FreeBSD forums here:
https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/midnight-commander-and-python3-support.71407/#post-440925

Looking at the upstream bugs for the 2 mc plugins that depend on python:
- #3936 uc1541 - plugin has been fixed for the upcoming mc 4.8.24 release [1]
- #3904 s3+ - plugin currently broken anyway [2]

Given this, when I update the port to 4.8.24 (after it is released), I will
change the dependency to python3. The good news is, it seems the 4.8.24 release
might be imminent [3].

I therefore propose we close this bug for now, and wait for the 4.8.24 release.
What are your thoughts? Do you agree?

Regards,
Ben
