I see this:

update_text_area updated_row->mode_line_p: 0
update_text_area updated_row->mode_line_p: 1
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
row_equal_p a->mode_line_p: 0 b->mode_line_p: 0
… Many more of these in each iteration …

So it's set in one update_text_area, but not another.
