Map controls sometimes ended up failing during init and falling back on software mode inappropriately.

This issue has been resolved.
Descriptive Problem Summary:

When a map control is rendered through a child control in DreamSeeker, if the child is set to lock the splitter to the panel that the map ISN'T in, no maptext will render on that map.

To reproduce problem:

* Create child control in default window

* Set left control to pane1, set right control to pane2

* Lock the splitter to pane1

* Create any control in pane1

* Create a map in pane2

* Add an object to the screen with some maptext to the main map.

* Run the project. No maptext will render.


To show that splitter locking is the problem:

* Lock the splitter to pane2

* Run the project. Maptext now renders.
That's really weird. The lock setting is strictly a matter of how resizes are handled.
I know, I was blown away by it too. Totally weird.
I can't reproduce this in a test project. Do you have one that does it?
Sure. Will send via PM once I'm done with some silly restructuring to a proc that I'm messing with.
