I get permission denied. I got some new screen session when I executed it as 
root, but I certainly did not enter my user's session.

I just opened https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=615266 and asked for 
restoring of the 4.3.1-r1 version, at least for a while.

I compiled manually from original tarball but it did not work as I cannot 
specify path to the directory with sockets on the command line.

I have /tmp/screen/S-${username} but self-compiled vanilla screen looked for 
/tmp/uscreens/S-${username}. The Gentoo documentation says 
/var/run/screen/S-${username} and 
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591772 proposes $HOME/.screen/.

Seems easiest is to restore the package for the time being.

Thanks!
Martin
