Probably fallout from bug 1305086, looking into it now.
Jim, it looks like this is caused by your third patch for bug 1291385; I confirmed on a local build that backing it out fixes this issue. Can we safely back it out or do you think doing so will break something else?

You can back out GeckoApp.java and browser.js, but keep the changes in GeckoView.java.

snorp suggested we could do better than just partially backing out that patch, and kats pointed me in the direction of what was probably happening here. We can fix this by just explicitly setting the LayerView's paint state in GeckoApp.initialize rather than reviving Viewport:Flush. What do you think, Jim?
