No, I can't reproduce this.

After watching Dmitrii's video I thought it might be related to a light
terminal background color (I normally use a black background), so I
tried that, but no flickering. I don't know what else to try now to
reproduce this.

Maybe it helps if I describe exactly what I'm doing?

C-x 3
C-x o
C-x b *scratch* RET
C-x o

Make the xdisp.c window scroll with C-n/C-p, C-v/M-v.

No flickering here.

Dmitrii, how do you set Emacs' background? Is that the terminal's
background, or does it perhaps come from your Emacs config? Or IOW, do
you test this with emacs -Q?
