IIUC the garbage flag of a frame is set over and over again.  So I would
first try to put breakpoints on the four SET_FRAME_GARBAGED calls in
xterm.c as soon as you control Emacs from the debugger.  This should
tell whether the window manager is causing it.  Next I would try the
calls in xdisp.c.  Simply lean on the c button in GDB.  If the culprit
is there, it should still be there when you release the button after a
while.  But wait: Eli might think that this is a silly idea.
