The problem with,

cat /dev/screen > /tmp/screen01

went away after a reboot. At the same time,

cp /dev/screen /tmp/screen02

worked just fine before the reboot.

After a reboot they both behave the same. My box has been up about three
weeks and I rebooted this morning as part of the testing of these.

Hmmmm, something is getting out of sync over time. Once I'm done I'll do
some long term testing and see if I can recreate reliably.
