Bug Description
With "term screen-256color-s" in .screenrc screen automatically set $TERMCAP variable which breaks applications like mc with 256 color support.
Running mc in bare rxvt or as `TERMCAP="" mc' workarounds the problem.
In order to fix it screen shouldn't touch $TERMCAP unless specifically instructed in .screenrc to do so.
