But Lisp evaluations might occur during redisplay (unless
inhibit-eval-during-redisplay is non-nil), and thus it's not safe to
do so in general.

I think that's because redisplay is paused by a pending Expose event
if redisplay-dont-pause is nil (`Fredisplay (Qt)' temporarily binds it
to t).  I observed similar undrawn area with "compositing window mode"
mentioned in *1 when redisplay-dont-pause is nil and without the patch
in *2.
