In the versions of libcurses I have seen, none has contained bug-free versions
of routines overlay and overwrite. Some don't work if the windows are not
starting at 0,0; some don't work if the overlaid window is not completely
within the boundary of the other, and some just don't work.

Below is a my version of overlay.c and if needed you can create a working
version of overwrite by removing the line "if( !isspace(*cp) )". It is not the
most efficient way to do overwrite but few seem to use it.

--------- overlay.c
# include	"curses.h"
# include	<ctype.h>

# define	min(a,b)	(a < b ? a : b)
# define	max(a,b)	(a > b ? a : b)

	/*
	 * find the maximum line and column of a window in screen coords
	 */
#define		MAX_LINE(win)	(win->_maxy + win->_begy)
#define		MAX_COL(win)	(win->_maxx + win->_begx)

/*
 *	This routine writes win1 on win2 non-destructively.
 *
 *	compile this routine and substitute for overlay.o in libcurses.a
 *	rewritten CJD UQ Min & Met Eng March 85 .
 */
overlay( win1, win2 )
	reg	WINDOW	    *win1, *win2;
{

	reg char	*cp, *end;
	reg int 	x2, i,
			endline, ytop,  y1,  y2,
			ncols,	xleft, x1start, x2start;

		/*
		 * ytop and xleft are starting line and col in terms
		 * of screen coordinates
		 */
	ytop = max( win1->_begy, win2->_begy );
	xleft = max( win1->_begx, win2->_begx );

		/* last line of  window 1 to look at */
	endline = min( MAX_LINE(win1),  MAX_LINE(win2) ) - win1->_begy;
	ncols	= min( MAX_COL(win1),  MAX_COL(win2) ) - xleft;
		/*
		 * y1 and x1start are starting row and line relative to window 1
		 */
	y1 = ytop - win1->_begy;
	x1start = xleft - win1->_begx;
	y2 = ytop - win2->_begy;
	x2start = xleft - win2->_begx;

	while ( y1 < endline ) {
		cp = &win1->_y[y1++][x1start];
		end = cp + ncols;
		x2 = x2start;
		for ( ; cp < end; cp++ ) {
			if ( !isspace( *cp ) ) {
				wmove( win2, y2, x2 );
				waddch( win2, *cp );
			}
			x2++;
		}
		y2++;
	}
}

/*
