I'm not sure why this step fails.  It seems that either screen.exe or its
installation directory, /usr/src/screen-4.0.3-1/inst/usr/bin, haven't been
created as they should have been.

I just ran this without any trouble, with --enable-colors256.  However, I'm not
quite sure how to test that option.  Can you please give my packages a try?  If
they work for you, and especially the 256-color support, let me know and I'll
release them to the repository.

Once you've downloaded the binary package, kill all of your screen sessions, run
e.g.

  tar -C/ -xf screen-4.0.3-3.tar.bz2

and then restart screen as usual to test.

It would also be helpful if you would give a brief description for the release
announcement, of what that option does and how to use it.

Andrew.
