Sure, you set a breakpoint to some function which gets invoked as 'emacsclient
-t' starts, like update_frame_line, but forgot to add 'cont' to the list of
commands. And then you forgot that you didn't add 'cont' and starts
'emacsclient -t' and start typing (like some arrow key) without noticing that
'emacsclient' frame has yet to appear on the screen. Now look at gdb window,
breakpoint must have it, do 'cont' there so that emacsclient starts, and now
you'll see some characters in buffer, with "End of buffer" message in
minibuffer (tooltip).

FTR, I'm still running r111924 for this debugging to avoid adding more
variables.

Done.

The output is attached though I forgot to prefix my inline annotations during
gdb. Here are they from the my shell history:
#v+
184 echo Starting emacsclient -t >>gdb.txt
185 echo 'Typing "foobar" in emacsclient window' >>gdb.txt
186 echo 'Now hovering mouse over X11 window' >>gdb.txt
187 echo 'Now focusing to emacsclient xterm by clicking on xterm titlebar'
>>gdb.txt
188 echo 'Now typing "foobar" in emacsclient xterm' >>gdb.txt
189 echo 'Typed "foobar" two more times in emacsclient xterm ^^^, and no
flicker yet' >>gdb.txt
190 echo 'Switching to X11 window' >>gdb.txt
191 echo 'Switching back to xterm window and typing "foobar"' >>gdb.txt
192 echo 'I only typed "foo" and it started flickering ^^^^^ vvvvv' >>gdb.txt
193 echo 'Typing C-g and M-x redraw-display' >>gdb.txt
194 echo 'Flickering stopped after C-g, now M-x redraw-display ' >>gdb.txt
195 echo 'While typing: M-x redraw-display it started flickering again'
>>gdb.txt
