Yeah, maybe that's right.

While your idea of testing being in VBLANK is "sane" :) it could
happen we start reclocking in VBLANK (first test will pass), we
reclock out of VBLANK (not wanted, possible corruption), and we hit
next VBLANK in second test.

In such situation (machine) I'm sure we will hit "false" in test
anyway (sooner or later) but maybe we could improve in anyway somehow?
To make sure it's sill the same VBLANK?
