You are using a local branch, it seems.  Can it be that this branch
has some changes which could explain the problem you see?

If not, then I guess only debugging on the C level will tell us what's
going on.  Although debugging problems that only happen when the
cursor is blinking is not easy.  But perhaps adding some printf's to
the relevant functions will help us understand what's going on.
