I did more investigations and found that FreeRDP 1.1.0 is able to display correctly the mouse pointer. For example, it displays correctly the hans cursor of Firefox, when hovering over a link.
I also found that FreeRDP 1.1.0 needs the -DWITH_XCURSOR compilation flag to correctly display the mouse pointer. So I compiled FreeRDP master with -DWITH_XCURSOR but this didn't help... I noticed the function xf_Pointer_New() that is called in xf_graphics.c when WITH_XCURSOR is defined. Perhaps the problem comes from there? Any help would be much appreciated... Thanks!
