Has anyone looked into the 21.0 TTY-related show-stopper that I
reported earlier? I tried to look into it, but I am still baffled by
most of the redisplay code.
The problem is that, when you split the frame, the whole frame
redisplays whenever you do anything with the minibuffer. Try
`C-x 2' followed by `M-: t RET'. Under X, it is merely annoying.
Under TTY's, it's a show-stopper, if we care about TTY users at all.
