Issue 198: Mplayer flickers in urxvt & floating layer
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=198

New issue report by gwern0:
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. From a Urxvt terminal in xmonad, run mplayer
2. Navigate to another workspace
3. Return to the workspace in which mplayer was running

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

One expects to see just the viewed material, but instead, one can see the
mplayer terminal status line flickering through it. Attached is a
screenshot of the mplayer and terminal.

Interestingly, I cannot reproduce this starting from gnome terminal, or
when I mod-u the mplayer window out of the float layer and into the regular
stackset.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Darcs xmonad (xmonad.hs on wiki), rxvt-unicode (urxvt) v8.4 - released:
