--- Comment #1 from Lawrence Chen <beastie at tardisi.com> ---
In digging around in the screen git repository....the change to favor sockets
over fifos was committed on 12/19/2005.  With the commit that set the release
to be 4.0.3, that we thought we've been using on 10/23/2006.

But, the configure.in file in the 4.0.3 source archive has a timestamp of
06/03/2003.  The archive contains most files in the range 04/28/2001 to
12/05/2003 with a jump to 10/23/2006.

So, our 4.0.3 was being configured using 4.0.0's configure script, missing 3
commits that had been done to it leading to 4.0.3.  There had been no change to
configure.in between 4.0.0 and 4.0.2.

The first change to configure.in was to address a security problem, though from
the diff it was to detect the need do something different on SVR4-based
systems.
