[Bug 901838]

Ok, so this is a side-effect of no longer using
gdk_cursor_new_from_pixmap (as it's not available in GTK3).

gdk_cursor_new_from_pixmap uses XCreatePixmapCursor to create a cursor,
and this does some magic via libxcursor to match a hash of the cursor
bitmap to a themed pointer (left_ptr_watch), which gave us the nice
looking pointer. There doesn't seem to be any support in xlib or gdk for
creating a pointer of this type with any other mechanism though :(
