Synopsis: gnome-terminal hangs when using screen

Description:
Description of Problem:

I'm using gnome-terminal and irssi in a screen. When I´m only working
with irssi, it's all fine and everything works.
But when I switch to another tab, and then back to the tab containing
the screened irssi, the entire terminal goes 
blue and stops responding. If I'm fast enough, I can detach and resume
the screen, then it won't hang.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. 

Start a gnome-terminal with two tabs, one screened irssi and one with
whatever. 

2. 

Switch to the whatever terminal, and launch a few commands (this has to
be done, otherwise it won't crash)

3. 

Then switch back to irssi. 


Actual Results:

The entire window goes blue (I could be out walking here, but it seems
as if it's either the blue topic-bar och the 
status-bar at the bottom of irssi that's sort of "streched out" over the
entire window.


Expected Results:

irssi should resume operation and function properly


How often does this happen?


Every time I do the above three steps


Additional Information:

The screen works as following:

My PC screens an ssh session to another PC, which has an irssi client
screened.

Screen version is 'Screen version 3.09.15 (FAU) 13-Mar-03' on both pc:s.


Note that this problem only occurrs when I use that setup, if I ssh into
the Other PC, and resumes the screen
from the shell there, the bug will not appear.
