Thanks! Fix landed (with some modifications) in http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/screen.git/commit/?id=cbaa666d4f21988164068a38ac915f8b4f3c4da3

crypt() can return NULL, but screen uses functions like strcmp() directly on the return value of crypt().

crypt() can return NULL when the system is in fips mode and the hashing algorithm passed via the salt value is not allowed (eg md5)
