	Since this RastPort belongs to someone else, if it were me doing
this, I'd Xerox the RastPort and bang on the resulting copy.  I'd keep the
LockLayer() calls in to prevent the CON: handler from rendering into or
scrolling the window, thus pulling the rug out from under me.

Disclaimer:  Xerox is a *VERB*.  So there.			:-)
