Screen is a full-screen window manager that multiplexes a physical terminal
between several processes (typically interactive shells).
Each virtual terminal provides the functions of a DEC VT100 terminal and, in
addition, several control functions from the ANSI X3.64 (ISO 6429) and ISO
2022 standards (e.g. insert/delete line and support for multiple character
sets). There is a scrollback history buffer for each virtual terminal and a
copy-and-paste mechanism that allows moving text regions between windows.

PKGNAME: there is no package for this port: NO_PACKAGE = Tends to loop using 100% CPU when used from package - perhaps it hard-codes information about the build host
Flavors: there is no flavor information for this port. #
Set NO_PACKAGE; screen tends to go into a loop using all available CPU
when used from the package. Perhaps it's hard-coding information from
the build system that is not true in general.

Patch against a bug which is a local root vulnerability on other platforms,
but which I could not repeat on FreeBSD. It may still be a problem, but it
looks like screen was already dropping privilege before the operation in
question.
