I have done this for my android-x86 build. The vanilla guest additions for 
Linux will not work. So you need to build vboxguest.ko with the kernel headers 
for your Android Linux kernel and write a small C program and STATICALLY link 
it, else it will not run on Android due to bionic and linker issues.
The small program needs to do VbglR3SetMouseStatus and link it to 
VBoxGuestR3LibShared.a and a bunch of others. Just run this binary in the init 
script for android and you will have a nice windows cursor which is much faster.
PS: Android doesn't use XPPS: android-x86 has a software cursor implementation.

I suppose Android doesn't display any cursor when simulating the touchscreen, 
so having VBox show a default cursor on the host would make it easier ?

Hmm Android doesn't use X11, right ?
