This is strange indeed because DrawFrame::Recadre_Trace() calls
DrawPanel::ReDraw() directly instead of issuing a refresh command.  Maybe there
is an extra refresh sneaking in somewhere on OSX that doesn't occur on other
platforms.  I'm not sure why this is implemented this way, JP may have some
insight as to why the normal refresh isn't being used.

I'm sure this works but it seems like an ugly hack to me.  I would like to see
if there isn't a better solution before we add an extra refresh for OSX.
