There's a debian package that modifies the default X11 cursor. It annoyed the heck out of me so it took me a while to figure out how to disable it. It turns out it renames the default cursor files (some image files... xpm, I think). So it looks like you can make your own X11 cursors by creating some image files and replacing the default image files. Sorry, don't remember what the cursor image files are named...
