*scratch*

screen -dR I think you want to run
actually I'm getting a little suspicious of the pam lib. there is a newer screen
(3.9.11-9) in rawhide

ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/SRPMS/SRPMS/screem-3.9.11-9.src.rpm

try rebuilding that and giving it another go (it worked here ok for me)
tell me if this still persists please.
