For me, when I use plbop/pleop I also see flickering (in the moment I 
only test on Windows XP, which might be different to wxGTK/Linux) and so 
far I haven't had the chance to dig into this case, maybe tomorrow or 
the day after.

I'm quite sure, that there were no changes regarding the xwin driver the 
last months, therefore there should be no difference, between svn-plplot 
and plplot 5.8.0.

You could try to have a look at drivers/xwin.c and see if you can find 
something, the xwin driver code is quite huge, but if you look just at 
the interface code to the plplot library (pl_init/pl_line/pl_polyline or 
something like that) you should soon get an idea about how the driver 
works. Maybe you spot some problems.

Regards,
Werner
