 Actually there is.

 The screen that ships with Leopard, and Snow Leopard, is buggy.

 It simply refuses to remember the current directory.

 Every new window started within a screen session starts in ~, no matter
 what the original directory was when screen was started.

 Just googled it actually, and people have been coming up with some
 [http://code.google.com/p/silassewell/wiki/ScreenOSX nasty hacks] to work
 around that problem.
