I've done it with a pixmap and mask containing only zeros sucessfully:

<Pascal code>
cursorbits:array[0..31] of char = (#0,#0,#0,#0,#0, ... ,#0);
cursormask:array[0..31] of char = (#0,#0,#0,#0,#0, ... ,#0);
...
source := gdk_bitmap_create_from_data (NULL, cursorbits, 16, 16);
mask := gdk_bitmap_create_from_data (NULL, cursormask, 16, 16);
cursor := gdk_cursor_new_from_pixmap (source, mask, @fg, @bg, 8, 8);
gdk_pixmap_unref (source);
gdk_pixmap_unref (mask);
</Pascal code>

(on GTK+1.2, but it should work for 2.x, too)

But beware, you've got to do this on dialog windows again.

HTH,
