XFree86 already has a software fallback mechanism for cursors which aren't supported by the hardware. ARGB cursors are just kind of cursor which XFree86 passes back to the software layer. At some point, the driver interface can be expanded to expose these cursors to the underlying software for hardware which does support these kinds of cursors. If you're running current XFree86 CVS, you should be seeing ARGB cursors all over your screen as Xlib has been hacked to use them in place of the stock cursor images.
