It used to happen on Windows, because the antialiasing around the
character overlaps with surrounding characters, causing much more than
just the character under the cursor to be redrawn.  The fix was to
improve the clip region around the text that needs redrawing so that at
most only the immediately adjacent characters need redrawing, not the
whole line or in extreme cases, the whole frame.
