I can imagine a couple of options:

1> Implement SRCPAINT in Carbon, it doesn't look hard

2> To mix two bitmaps you can convert each to a TLazIntfImage, use the
Pixels property to operate on them, in this case using the OR
operator, and convert back to a TBitmap the result. The wiki has
instructions about how to use TLazIntfImage

3> Use the Qt widgetset.
