IIUC this problem is with some "old" backend that worked fine with the
old flymake but now exhibits a poor behavior with the new flymake.
In that case I suggest you `M-x report-emacs-bug` so we can track
it down.

It's probably due to changes in the way flymake decides when to run
the backend(s) and we should fix those issues.
