probably related to the xfwm4 update in
https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-ports-cvs&m=158840312213950&w=2 (see
https://mail.xfce.org/pipermail/xfce-announce/2020-May/000856.html),
flickering is usually due to xpresent being used or not for vblank_mode.
(see /usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes/xfce where this is documented).

I've tested the update on intel only.
