It's not possible to build screen on BSD without patches, that's
normal.  If you have root on your BSD system you can download all
patches from official BSD repository.  I'm not sure how it's done on
NetBSD but on FreeBSD you could use portsnap and either copy patches
from /usr/ports/sysutils/screen/files and apply them manually or run
the provided Makefile directly.

I could publish patches provided by FreeBSD on the public server but
I'm not sure if they would work on NetBSD.
