well, one could simply do this same-inode check on directories as 
well. this would give exactly the desired effect - one error 
message box (for the top-level directory) and bye bye.

What do you think should be done in this case ?

1) Silently ignore the fact and continue

2) Pop up a box with several choices

3) Something else

recently i accidentally entered "." instead of ".." in the file 
copy dialog on a relatively big tree ... for every f***ing file in 
the tree i got the "<foo> and <bar> are the same file" message box, 
without any way to escape except killing mc from the outside.
