So aside from the Ubuntu package being outdated (The codebase has indeed
changed massively.) the patch we need to get screen working properly is
way more intrusive then originally thought and there might even be the
case that we have to do some additional lower-level plumbing in the
kernel or glibc to get this working. In short, screen tries to perform
various operations on the corresponding /dev/pts/<n> paths that the
symbolic links under /proc/self/fd/<n> point to and it is not clear
whether we can support all of that by just using the symlinks
themselves.
