I only began experiencing this problem when I upgraded from Screen
version 4.00.03jw4, so this seems unlikely to me. Was there a
significant change in altscreen handling?  In any case, I am using
indeed using xterm if you would still be willing to investigate for me.

I have now reverted to 4.00.03jw4 due to frequent segfaults that also
appear to be related to altscreen. The issues are reminiscent of what's
described in bug
[#666052](http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=666052), but
I experienced no segfaults until I upgraded to Wheezy and, in the
process, upgraded GNU screen.

Thank you,
Eric
