Just to add some info to the mix: I tried a test between
two linux machines:
1) fedora 3 32bit/Xorg 6.8.1 (2004)/flwm
2) centos 5.5 64bit/Xorg 7.1.1 (2006)/flwm
I went on each, and ran both a local test of 'tile', and
also ssh'ing to the 'other' machine and running tile through
the DISPLAY.
In all four cases (local on each, remote on each), no xlib
errors while moving around the tiles. (I didn't resize the window,
I just moved the tiles all around the screen to their extremes)
So seems like this must be /very/ OS/Xserver specific.
Which is not to say we shouldn't try to fix this.
(It's just hard to fix if we can't replicate)
I could see us possibly avoiding draws of any windows
where the w or h is zero at the X interface level;
probably an easy test.
I don't know our X implementation very well, so I
probably can't add much insight beyond that
without going "down in the basement" to check for cobwebs.
