Thanks for info, but I haven't upgraded MC in last few moths (it's default 
one in Kubuntu 10.10) and it worked without any problems with older 
BusyBox. I can only assume that there were any used by MC parameters which 
older BusyBox was missing and MC haven't used them. Is there already known 
workaround for this problem?

Here's the strace log from current connection (cut the key exchange and 
password verification at the beginning):

I tried to run the executed commands from shell and haven't noticed any 
problems with their output.
