Interestingly this commit has increased the number of buggy character occurrence - although I admit I'm overriding MAX_FLUSH_VERTICES to 9 (since I don't like the slowness with 1) so I've been rather living with faster desktop and occasional wrong characters on the screen - but with this commit it seems to appearance of visual problem increased to the level which makes noticeable reading difficulties that probably enforce me to switch to very slow '1' for MAX :(...

(I'm not sure if it's the direct cause - since I've been using before about 3 week old version of git tree)
