grayRgn is not only the region defining where the deskPattern is drawn, it's
also the region to which windows are clipped.  The secret to getting windows
above the menu bar is to set grayRgn to the whole screen AFTER calling
InitWindows.  A big thank you to Larry Rosenstein of Apple for answering my
question, and to all who sent suggestions.
