Details:
screen 4.5.0 broke the functionality of '-L' (4.4.0 didn't have this issue)
To reproduce: run screen with -L followed by any other parameter:
$ screen -L -S x
-L: logfile name can not start with "-" symbol
If "-L" is at the end of the options string (or a single parameter) all works
as expected:
$ screen -S x -L
$ screen -L
Observed in fedora 25's 4.5.0
PS: I suspect strcmp is at fault in
