Great that this will be included in an official Cygwin screen package! The
256 colors mode is invaluable for people using Emacs in terminal mode: Emacs
supports 256 colors, and code becomes a lot easier on the eye.

By the way, I downloaded
http://home.comcast.net/~andrex2/cygwin-1.5/screen/screen-4.0.3-3.tar.bz2
and tried it on Cygwin 1.5 with PuTTY (256 colors enabled): started screen
plus Emacs, and it shows all 256 colors with M-x list-colors-display!
Beautiful.

Note that for Emacs to recognize screen-256color, you need to add the
following into "term/screen-256color.el" in the load path (for Emacs 22):

(defun terminal-init-screen ()
  "Terminal initialization function for screen."
  ;; Use the xterm color initialization code.
  (load "term/xterm")
  (xterm-register-default-colors)
  (tty-set-up-initial-frame-faces))
