Xlib manual says that XCreatePixmapCursor is used to create cursor from two 
bitmaps.
It also says that this function can generate BadAlloc and BadPixmap errors.

BTW, it seems, that cursors are loaded normally on my linux mashine (CVS HEAD 
today,
30 mins ago, with patch from #12111). (Not that i have tested it under 
windows...)

Thanks, evyscr.
