perhaps you should do clear the event queue before beginning your
processing:

# change cursor
Gtk2->main_iteration while (Gtk2->events_pending);
# do work
# change cursor back

depending on what's going on the above may ensure your cursor change
happens before you being your processing rather than after it's done and
you make it into a main loop through natural means.
