I found the problem. show_help_echo calls mouse-fixup-help-message,
which calls mouse-pixel-position, which calls XTmouse_position, whose
side-effect is to clear the mouse_moved flags of every frame. The
documentation of XTmouse_position says that this is "so we can wait
for the next mouse movement", but it causes a bug if we are in the
middle of tracking the mouse.
I've checked in a fix into show_help_echo. Now, when we are tracking
the mouse, we save the mouse_moved flag and restore it after the call
to mouse-fixup-help-message.
