I just unzipped a fresh BL3, copied screen to
/usr/local/bin and executed it.  There was no
I/O error.  I simply got a splash screen: 
Copyright (c) 1993-1999 ...GPL...WITHOUT ANY
WARRANTY...bug reports...Press Space or Return

I pressed space and got the usual blinking prompt.

I got e3pi and links both running under screen
and still no error.

Cheers,
