Please install ncurses-term on that machine. That should fix it
because that package contains those missing definitions, even already
on Squeeze.

# dpkg -S rxvt-256color
ncurses-term: /usr/share/terminfo/m/mrxvt-256color
ncurses-term: /usr/share/terminfo/r/rxvt-256color
# lsb_release -a

Distributor ID: Debian
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.10 (squeeze)
Release:        6.0.10
Codename:       squeeze

I'll add a "Suggests: ncurses-term" to screen. I don't want to use
"recommends", because it's always a big discussion if ncurses-term
causes more harm than good.

                Regards, Axel
