Server terminating when reattaching to screen

["Einar S. Idsø"]

We are currently running all our servers within screen sessions. This
enables us to enter the console at will to issue commands. However, it
seems that about 1 in 2 times when I try to reattach to a running
server, the server terminates. This makes running the server w/i a
screen simply too risky to be helpful.

The 32-bit server runs on a P4 with 1GB RAM and Gentoo Linux.
$ screen --version
Screen version 4.00.02 (FAU) 5-Dec-03

Does anyone else have this problem?
