  Title: screen crashed with SIGSEGV
  UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to trusty on 2013-10-31 (91 days ago)
  UserGroups:
+ 
+ [Impact] 
+  * Byobu users of the byobu-screen backend will find their screen process 
crashed, if they hit ctrl-a (screen's default escape sequence).  This is a 
critical breakage for byobu-screen users.
+ [Test Case]
+  * From a new or fresh Trusty installation (desktop or server), drop to a 
command line, and run 'byobu-screen'.  You'll be interactively prompted to 
choose whether ctrl-a should be handled like screen or emacs.  Choose (1) for 
screen.  Your screen session is now crashed.
+  * Upgrade to the package in trusty-proposed, launch a new byobu-screen 
session, and press ctrl-a-c to create a new window, and then ctrl-a-n and 
ctrl-a-p and that should all work perfectly well now.
+ [Regression Potential] 
+  * This fix does revert the change that was intended to fix a far more minor 
Bug: #814172.  I have reopened that bug, will fix it separately, and upload 
another SRU later.
+  * Otherwise, regression potential should be minimal.  Once that recent 
commit was reverted, the code looks very much like it's looked for a very long, 
stable time.
+ [Other Info]
+  * None
