Getting back frame-flashing on OS X in emacs-25

Getting back frame-flashing on OS X in emacs-25

[John Wiegley]

At some point I recall someone adding a feature to emacs-25 that would show a
yellow triangle in the middle of the frame instead of flashing the border.

I'm finding that against a white background full of text, this yellow triangle
is not visible enough, so I often don't realize that an error is occurring.

How do I return to the frame-flash of Emacs 24.5?

I think that was changed due to this bug:

http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=21662

The original code didn't work on OS X 10.11 (it was a bug in Mac OS X [1]).
