There isn't any standard function that I know of,
probably due to this being a fairly rare need.
A simple kludge that will suffice is to clear a
scratch word then bitblt() the point into it,
followed by testing the scratch word for nonzero.

<blitio.h> works okay here. You didn't supply enough
information to permit remote debugging.
