As I mentioned, Fink's screen distribution works, even though it is the 
exact version of screen that Apple ships with Leopard. Apple's screen on 
Tiger also did not have that problem. (I don't know the difference of 
Leopard's and Tiger's screen.)

It may have to do with the screenrc that comes with Fink but is not 
available for Apple's screen.

I would be curious to know the reasons, but this would be off-topic 
here. It's not an Alpine problem and affects other terminal tools as 
well (e.g. hdiutil).

Anyway, thanks again for the initial pointer.

Cheers,
Claus
