Public bug reported:

I am using screen via ssh to work with remote server running ubuntu
12.04.

When I enter in root shell via sudo su - some programs like mc or aptitude that 
using pseudographics are almost unusable (see screenshots).
Steps to reproduce:
1. ssh to remote server
2. start screen session (just type screen)
3. run root shell (sudo su -)
4. start midnight commander (mc)

This works fine (no screen running):
1. ssh to remote server
2. run root shell (sudo su -)
3. start midnight commander (mc)

It is the 12.04 regression. Without screen all programs works fine. Also
when I work with server running ubuntu 10.04 all works as expected.
