I've done a bit of digging, and it looks like the problem has something
to do with the value of CompWindow->priv->attrib.border_width being
unstable.  PrivateWindow::updateFrameWindow() periodically causes the
window's border_width to be set to that value (see line 803 of
src/window.cpp), and for me that value seems to bounce between 0 and 1,
with the xterm display looking correct when the window's border_width
get set to 0, and looking corrupted when it is 1.  Changing line 803 to
just "xev.border_width = 0;" seems to fix the xterm corruption (though,
obviously, this is not a proper fix).

I'm still not sure how CompWindow->priv->attrib.border_width is getting
changed.
