Summary: r4473 produces errant behavior with TurboVNC Viewer

Initial Comment:
The enhancement made to Xvnc in trunk to support full-color cursors causes 
problems when a TurboVNC viewer connects (probably a TightVNC viewer as well, 
but I haven't tested that.)  The easiest way to reproduce the issue is to 
launch the "next-gen" (trunk) Xvnc, then connect using the TurboVNC Viewer, 
then launch glxspheres in vglrun.  The cursor will move to the top left of the 
display and will stop responding to mouse movements.  Other apps may cause that 
as well-- VirtualGL just seems to do it very quickly.

This goes away if I back out r4473.

Message:
I think we are describing the same problem.  What seems to happen is that
there are two cursors.  The "real" cursor is always rendered at the top
left of the remote desktop.  When I first connect to the session, I get a
second cursor that is always rendered as an arrow, even when it shouldn't
be (such as when mousing over a window.)  After I type something in a
console window, this second cursor disappears and never comes back.

When using the TurboVNC server or the TigerVNC 1.1.0 server, the cursor
renders and changes shape properly.

Message:
I'm trying to reproduce this here, but no luck. The behaviour I'm getting
from the TurboVNC viewer here is that it never changes the cursor. I just
get the standard pointer constantly. This is with the official 64-bit
TurboVNC RPM, version 1.0.2.
