It'd be helpful to narrow down what point this happens at - has the
window fully displayed first?

There's not much macos-specific code in aven.  It might be something in
wxwidgets we're triggering though, either a wxwidgets bug, or aven doing
something wrong which happens to work on other platforms.  Aven hasn't
changed in this area though, but homebrew's wxwidgets is 3.1.x now,
which is a development series not a stable release series.  Possibly we
should force wxwidgets at 3.0 for now.  Sadly wxwidgets release management
seems to have lost its way a bit and 3.2.0 seems to be perpetually
"upcoming".

Also, is everyone on macos seeing this?  Maybe it's specific to macos 12
or something.
