There are tons of bugs fixed upstream[1], but there are also some
nasty new bugs introduced and I currently recommend to rather try to
backport such fixes until Debian bug #644788 ("screen 4.1.0 can’t
attach to a running/detached screen 4.0.3 session") is fixed upstream
(or workarounded in Debian's screen package which is the less
favourable alternative) if you care about users who run a dist-upgrade
inside a screen.
See [2] for the discussion about this on the upstream mailing list
which is distributed over several months in the mailing list archive.

And I'd expect it will so in Precise (but also expect it to be fixed
in Precise+1).

... which hasn't even had a beta release yet for some reasons[3].
