I had only been hit occasionally by this bug over the last several months, and I've just been ignoring it. But, by chance or by special circumstances, I've triggered the bug three times today... before lunch. So it's really getting on my nerves.
I do think that the bug is in screen (not byobu), and it seems likely that it's the same as https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?26742, as Micah suggested. I just looked it up, and that bug has a patch which is believed to work (and will be included in screen 4.1). Since this bug can potentially result in data-loss, and there are a lot of people affected by it, is there any chance we could get a new package built using the patch, either in karmic-updates or at least in a PPA? (If this keeps annoying me, and someone else doesn't have time/inclination to post a package, my next weekend project might need to be learning how to build deb packages and create a PPA.)
