I could only reproduce this problem when the client screen (i.e. the
screen in 'screen 4 [program]') is of a different version from the
screen server it tries to connect to (both are 4.1.0devel, but of
different revisions)

Using the same revision, both the following rc works:

        screen 4 man man

and

        screen
        stuff 'screen 4 man man
'

As for the reason, I think revision 8147d086 is causing this, since it
changed the size of struct msg.
