The DTRT patch is also in https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?15921; marking this a dupe.

Here's a patch to Do The Right Thing and use autoconf to detect the number of setenv() arguments.

Wed 01 Nov 2006 05:14:58 AM UTC, original submission:

screen sadly does not use autoconf to determine the arguments for setenv(), even though it does use it to detect the presence of setenv(). It instead has some hard-coded heuristics in misc.c. Sadly, it doesn't know that Solaris 10 added support for setenv() with 3 arguments (just like Linux and recent BSD flavours).

I'm attaching a hack patch that just fixes misc.c. The correct fix is to have this detected properly by autoconf.
