Yes, it solves the problems as far as I tested.  But because
adjust_frame_glyphs are called from many places other than font
changes, I wonder if it might disable some cases where some
optimizations were applied successfully otherwise (sorry, I don't have
any ideas about concrete examples).  Some calls to adjust_frame_glyphs
are already accompanied by SET_FRAME_GARBAGED, but not always.
