The result was similar to Eli's second patch.  With your patch alone,
the original problem remains.  With Eli's first patch, some of
mode-lines are not update with C-x o.

I've experienced similar mode-line erasure without customization of
the mode-line face on the Mac port a few times (probably after
pixel-based mouse-wheel smooth scrolling over an inactive window).
But I couldn't find a way to reproducible it reliably.  The face
customization example was originally given by a user of the Mac port
as a part of a bug report I received.
