mc not recognising 2nd directory argument

[mc-butler]

Important

This issue was migrated from Trac:

Origin	https://midnight-commander.org/ticket/2762
Reporter	tempUser (NotGimp@….com)

mc can open two different directories in the 2 panes using

$ mc dir1 dir2

with the latest version, the 2nd argument isn't being recognised.

The left pane always opens the home directory, and the right pane uses the first argument, and the second argument gets ignored.
