SAM: Part of text (subtitles) disappears when moving mouse

Description
In Sam&Max's office if you get Sam (and Max?) to stand behind the table and try to use Max on the TV antenna (or probably anything else that would get the subtitles in the same position.. if there is any other such object) and move the mouse cursor while the text ("I can't use these things together") is displayed part of the text disappears! (Upper left corner.)
The positioning of Sam is quite critical it seems, but it's easily reproducible for me (but takes a little trial and error sometimes).
I just happened to stumble upon this one, and thought it might have worse effects somewhere else, if it is a "real bug".
Verified with ScummVM 0.4.0 and current CVS (2003-05-14) on (GNU/)Linux... (SDL 1.2.5).

Just for the sake of clearness... The same thing happens in other rooms too. (Added third screenshot)

Further explanation: Much easier to reproduce as in ....textbug3.png (using Max on the stairs up and moving the mouse while text is visible.)

The problem is with our implementation of useIm01Cursor(). See patch #738100 for more details.
To clarify a bit further, it's not the moving of the cursor that causes the problem. It's when the cursor changes to Max's head with a red outline. Since this is the cursor you already have when you cause the text to be drawn, you have to move the cursor so that it changes to the non-outlined version and back again.
I haven't checked, but I imagine the same thing can happen with some (but not all, apparently) other cursors as well. Perhaps it's just the ones you get when using an object with another?

Yes, now that you say it... and I look at it again, that is exactly when it happens.
I can also verify that your patch eliminates the problem.
