Hi,
the code I referenced is on screen-v4 branch, it is code from which v4
releases are done, master branch has work towards v5.
If you want to use mater branch, then look at:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/screen.git/tree/src/winmsg.c#n366
and
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/screen.git/tree/src/process.c#n5978
