Creating Mask crash fix

Adding twice a comment with your initials and a date is not helpful. This can be tracked with mercurial.
More helpful would be a comment with a description why the separate code block is necessary.

And why does it only happens with exclude region? Should be the same happen also with include region?

Sorry about the comment... it was for my internal use and I forget to
remove.

As for the separate code block, from stepping through with the debugger,
there appears to be a race condition that appears to resolved by
serializing in this fashion. If I recall correctly, I was getting a
fault in the m_overlay.Reset() before the overlaydc.Clear() completed.
