   Yes, I was afraid my patch might trigger this one too.

   I tried to reproduce the problem over a remote X session and can't do it 
there either.  I do see it for a single repaint, but it is immediately wiped 
out.  Here's what happens:

Click on dropdown
Click on Y zoom without moving mouse and leave mouse still
Dropdown disappears
Partial guideline is drawn underneath the dropdown
Still don't move the mouse
Repaint happens eventually (remote X, it's slow)
Guideline is drawn properly

 -> You are not getting the repaint

  I guess you'll need to start tracing the events on your system to see what's 
happening.  I don't want to make things any slower to fix this though.  It's 
a very isolated case.  Worst case we add a configure option which does a 
conditional compile on the optimization for people who have this issue, or we 
remove the guideline altogether.
