I'm not the maintainer, so I'm not sure if there is any chance of changing screen/screen upstream to have a new build dependency. If there is then that is obviously preferred. If not then the patch as-is would work and isn't terribly invasive. (I'm sure that it could be improved and also applied to other primitives - but I didn't do that.) The worst case I can see is if either $HOME isn't defined, or ~non-existant/ is used - both of which will revert back to using the non-expanded version which seems reasonable to me..
