In squeeze, doing the following caused a screen window to close promptly:
sleep 1000 & exit

However, in wheezy, it hangs for a few seconds (not 1000 seconds) before
closing.  Troubleshooting this points to backgrounded processes that have
file descriptors open to the pty.  When they are closed as below, the screen
window will close promptly:

</dev/null sleep 1000 >/dev/null 2>&1 & exit

As I use screen to launch new GUI apps in the background and immediately
close the window, this makes it a bit disconcerting when it stays around
for a while in the window list.
