Hi, Since your last changes related to the mode-line redisplay bug thread, help-echo messages on the header-line or the mode-line are shown sporadically.
Just start emacs -Q and move the mouse on the mode-line, it is difficult to make tool tips appear. When I turn off tooltip-mode, I see that messages in the echo area are cleared as soon as they appear. On the tool bar tool tips and echo area messages appear normally.
