Let me reissue :

we have the following structure :
A
|-- B
|   |-- X
|   |-- Y
|   |-- Z
|   |-- file1
|   |-- file2
|   `-- file3
|-- C
|   |-- file1
|   |-- file2
|   `-- file3
|-- D
|-- E
`-- F

We enter directory B and request directory sizes. mc will count everything that 
resides in directory B and caches the result.
Now we are getting BACK to the parent directory A and request directory count 
again. Please keep in mind that untill this moment we only requested directory 
counts while we were in directory B. 
Now when we request counting while in parent directory A we would expect 
correct counting for all directories B,C...F.
However, instead of that mc just fetches the total for directory B (in which we 
previously ran directory count). IT WILL NOT COUNT THE DIRECTORIES THAT ARE ON 
THE SAME LEVEL : C,D,E and F.
IT IS A BUG.
