I could use some advice on the following situation.  Environment is X11R3.

I have a widget that sits beneath a bunch of other widgets.  Even though
I elect event compression, building the stack results in a flood of
expose events for the widget on the bottom, with resultant redundant
re-drawing.  How can I detect or avoid them?
