All of the strange behavior is cured by me adding enough screen sessions:

s1:5:respawn:/bin/startsess tty1  /etc/screen_session
s2:5:respawn:/bin/startsess tty2  /etc/screen_session
s3:5:respawn:/bin/startsess tty3  /etc/screen_session
s4:5:respawn:/bin/startsess tty4  /etc/screen_session
s5:5:respawn:/bin/startsess tty5  /etc/screen_session
s6:5:off:/bin/startsess tty6  /etc/screen_session
s7:5:off:/bin/startsess tty7  /etc/screen_session

I had 3 on the rest off. Sorry. Just to be definite the above is an
extract from my inittab
and from lts.conf:

[saunders]
    SERVER      = "192.168.1.254"
    SCREEN_01   = "startx -ac -query 192.168.1.254 :0"
    SCREEN_02   = "startx -ac -query 192.168.1.254 :1"
    SCREEN_03   = "startx -ac -query 192.168.1.254 :2"
    SCREEN_04   = "startx -ac -query 192.168.1.254 :3"
    SCREEN_05   = "shell"
    X_MOUSE_PROTOCOL   = "IMPS/2"
    X_MOUSE_DEVICE     = "/dev/input/mice"
    XSERVER     = "auto"
    X_MODE_0    = "1280x1024"
    X_VERTREFRESH = "59 - 63"
    X_HORZSYNC  = "30 - 90"
    DISABLE_ACCESS_CONTROL = "Y"
    PRINTER_0_DEVICE = /dev/lp0
    PRINTER_0_TYPE = P
