Well, I've looked closely at the code and my guess is that it's been
left in by mistake, and probably no-one's actually noticed it's there.

The header file includes the help entries for the full version of rar
and the free version of unrar. During the compilation of unrar, UNRAR is
defined and used to enable the compilation of a code block that includes
the help descriptions.

I've written a patch to strip it out, compiled it, given it a quick
test. I've sent it off to the authors, and now just have to wait and see
if they are going to accept a patch.

I thought as much. I haven't used mc for a (very) long time so it was a
bit of an educated guess.

Educated guesses is the cornerstone of coputing. :-D

I though WAG was the cornerstone of computing, and the educated guesses
were there just to act as props. :-)
