This is a bug/regression, created by
http://trac.openlayers.org/changeset/6832/trunk/openlayers/lib/OpenLayers/Events.js .

While we work out the correct resolution to this issue, you can use the
following workaround:

Pass an "EVENT_TYPES" property to Layer options, as such:

    buffer = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS( "WMS Buffer 0",
            "http://labs.metacarta.com/wms/vmap0",
            {layers: 'basic'} ,
            {EVENT_TYPES:["loadstart", "loadend", "loadcancel",
                          "visibilitychanged","tileloaded"]}
    );

Note the inclusion of the 'tileloaded' event. 

I'm sorry about this regression.
