Since several years, I have experienced sporadic hangs of screen. They happen like this:

One screen hangs, but I can still switch to other screens and also detach.

When I detach and try to reattach, the client process hangs. It is also unresponsive to Ctrl-C. Suspending works.

I observe this behavior both on FreeBSD and Linux. I could not yet find a way to reproduce the problem. It happens rarely, but frequent enough to be a real annoyance.

If you have a similar problem or any insights, please comment. I can put some time into fixing this, but currently I do not have any good theory what the problem could be.
