    _______________________________________________________

Details:

At line 247 of os.h there is this conditional:

/* Alexandre Oliva: SVR4 style ptys don't work with osf */
#ifdef __osf__
# undef HAVE_SVR4_PTYS
#endif

As __osf__ is defined by the standard Tru64 C compiler, this undefines
HAVE_SVR4_PTYS and breaks screen on Tru64 (5.1B).

Unfortunately I can't see an easy way to distinguish Tru64 via a standard
macro, so maybe it should be done by autoconf?
