I think the reason that you see those registers only when using
screen is that last line, the one that sets DISPLAY. Without
DISPLAY in the environment, Vim thinks it is not running under X so
it does not enable any features that depend on X.
However, setting DISPLAY manually is not the correct solution. Your
system should set DISPLAY itself. If it is not setting DISPLAY
itself, you need to find out why and fix that.
And please don't top-post to this list.
