If it's really a bug, do you need any further input (a testcase etc.) from me? 
Any clue in which release it is going to be fixed?

Btw, shortly I had posted my original request for help, I added some logging 
and sleep()s into my app and found a workaround (as usually ;-) ).  
I realised that the window associated with the bottom ripped-off line is 
always (even after screen resize) painted at the original position. So in 
screen resize handler, I have to explicitly move it to the downmost position 
(using mvwin() routine) and call doupdate() after that.
