I don't know what you're talking about. Can you provide step-by-step
instructions to reproduce this bug?

Mouse works for me within screen:
xterm -e screen emacs -nw -Q -f xterm-mouse-mode
Note that this requires Emacs to be compiled with X enabled (i.e. it
doesn't work in emacs22-nox). The scroll wheel also works, but
requires bindings. From my .emacs:
(when (and (fboundp 'xterm-mouse-mode)
(not window-system)
(featurep 'mouse))
(xterm-mouse-mode +1)
(when (fboundp 'mwheel-scroll)
(global-set-key (kbd "<mouse-4>") 'mwheel-scroll)
(global-set-key (kbd "<mouse-5>") 'mwheel-scroll)))
PS: note that (not window-system) has the wrong semantics in CVS Emacs
with mtty, e.g. if your first Emacs window is a native X window but
then you start an mtty emacsclient inside screen.
