Package: screen
Version: 4.0.2-4.1
Severity: critical
Followup-For: Bug #157873


This bug is also reported under the screen web site on savannah:

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?func=detailitem&item_id=11610

In comment #1, he gave a solution which adds an alarm. He uses
sigsetjmp and siglongjmp to skip over the blocking routines
which works fine here.

This is a really highly critical problem because it causes that
all applications which were running below the hard hanging screen
have to be killed since the screen in really dead beyong recovery.

Either this or the other fix which was already given must be applied...
