	This would seem to point the finger at Spy, since LightspeedC
has nothing to do with the Finder desktop. I have also noticed that Spy 
does funny and un-beautiful things when running on a Mac Plus equipped
with a Radius FPD.

	I would suspect that Spy hooks DrawMenuBar() when necessary to
refresh its display, and doesn't restore the Quickdraw pen state when it's
done with its drawing; this would account for lots of things,  such as the
MultiFinder icon and the "corners" of the menu bar being misplaced.
