    Problem Text
    The test cpyar does not check, when copying from a window to another
    (through XCopyArea), that the source window (or part of it) is not
    obscured by another window.
    Instead, the pixmap used for pixel checking assumes that the source
    window is not obscured.

    In particular, at a certain point the test performs an

    XCopyArea(display, src, dest, gc, 0, 0, 20, 40, 5, 6);

    wehere src has a geometry of 100x90+25+80, and dest is the root window.
    src is partially obscured by another window whose geometry is 100x90+0+0.

    This occurs for an X server with screen dimensions 1024x768, 8 color
    planes and the following visuals:

    XT_VISUAL_CLASSES = PseudoColor(8) DirectColor(8) GrayScale(8)
    StaticGray(8) StaticColor(8) TrueColor(8)



    DETAILED DESCRIPTION.
    --------------------
    Assertion 25 test routine (t025()) can be summarized in the following loop:

    for (all visuals) { /* PseudoColor, DirectColor, GrayScale, ... */
    A create two not overlapping windows namely src and dest, with
    white background, black foreground, black border of
    width 1; dimensions are 100x90;

    B paint 'src' with black;

    C XCopyArea(display, src, dest, gc, 0, 0, 20, 40, 5, 6);

    D Save 'dest' content to use for pixel checks;

    E clear(dest);

    F XSetSubwindowMode(display, gc, IncludeInferiors);

    G create lots of dest subwindows over dest surface:
    5 windows of 10x90 at (0,0); (20,0); ... (80,0).
    45 windows of 10x6 in (x,y) with x=0,20,40,...80 and
    y=0,10,20,...80. These windows have no border.

    H XCopyArea(display, src, dest, gc, 0, 0, 20, 40, 5, 6);

    I check: result of last 2 XCopyArea should be the same;

    J clear(dest);

    K XSetWindowBorderWidth(display, dest, 0);

    L XMoveWindow(display, dest, 0, 0);

    M XCopyArea(display, src, ROOT_WIN, gc, 0, 0, 20, 40, 5, 6);

    N check: result of this XCopyArea should be again the same;
    }

    The "output" of this routine is listed in the following. Windows are named
    with the 'id' used by our server. Error condition is reached at the 3rd loop.

    over 0x400040 (which is over 0x400006) and PARTIALLY OCCLUDES
    0x400078 which is the source for the next XCopyArea. THIS CAUSES THE
    FAIL.

    M inside 0x40007a only the rect in (5,15), dimensions 20x31 is
    black, while the test expects that the whole rect in (5,6), dim.
    20x40 is black.

    N check FAILED;;


    SUGGESTED MODIFICATION OF TEST SUITE CODE
    -----------------------------------------
    The t025() routine creates two not overlapping windows and then uses the
    first as source and the other as destination. So the first part of the test
    will never have problems with overlapping windows. In the second part the
    destination is moved to (0,0) of screen and the copy is repeated without
    any check for overlapping conditions between the source and the NEWLY
    positioned destination.
    A possible solution (but we still haven't tested it) could be
    to modify incxy() in module makewin.c to avoid positioning near (0,0).
    The new code would be:

    static void
    incxy(disp, vp)
    Display *disp;
    XVisualInfo *vp;
    {
    unsigned int dwidth, dheight;

    /*
    * Increment the positions so that the windows do not overlap. This
    * is essential for winpair() and useful to see what is happening for
    * the rest. Avoid positions with x or y zero.
    */
    xpos += 23;
    ypos += W_STDHEIGHT+2*BWIDTH+1;

    dwidth = DisplayWidth(disp, vp->screen);
    dheight = DisplayHeight(disp, vp->screen);

    while (ypos+W_STDHEIGHT+2*BWIDTH > dheight)
    ypos -= dheight;
    while (ypos <= (W_STDHEIGHT+2*BWIDTH)) /* WAS: (ypos <= 0) */
    ypos += W_STDHEIGHT;
    while (xpos+(2*BWIDTH+W_STDWIDTH) > dwidth)
    xpos -= dwidth;
    while (xpos <= (2*BWIDTH+W_STDWIDTH)) /* WAS: (xpos <= 0) */
    xpos += W_STDWIDTH;
    }
