Whoa. I haven't been following this cursor stuff very closely and so
maybe this is already explained, but why is this going in XMC and not
X11? This looks like the kind of very low-level general key munging
most appropriate for the latter.
It's not, it's which isn't currently exported by
X11. Since only one entry is being used, it's being specified locally
but in a way which will avoid collisions if cursorfont is added to X11
later. (I doubt it's a high priority.)
It's only low level in the sense that X11's cursor stuff is rather
primitive (in several senses of the term).
