I just tested out win32. It's flickering problem is a completely
different issue, in fact, its the exact opposite problem. :)

the problem here is that afaict, the attempted double buffering code in
the lcl is always happening, and instead of preventing flickering its
causing even worse flickering. I tried disabling it for now with a
BUFFERED_WMPAINT define, since it is never used in gtk interfaces, and
it is causing such a mess in win32 anyway. If we figure out how to fix
it properly we can re-enable the code by enabling this define at the top
of Controls or removing the ifdef's entirely etc.
