The generic locations are links to the specific:

But does not necessarily live in the same place: redhat 7.3, 7.2 and
recent fedora fc1
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/cursorfont.h
a bit different from that above! HTH

I thought using the numbers directly was A Bad Thing? Is there a way to use the definiton
names in the cursorfonts.h available in idl under X? I just tried and couldn't get,
device, cursor_standard=XC_pirate
to work, but
device, cursor_standard=88
gave me the skull and crossbones. Anyway, here's my cursorfont.h from my RHE WS3.0 setup:

David, I just looked on Linux, Solaris, SunOS, and Alpha machines.
They all have essentially the same file (authored by either X
Consortium or OpenGroup), and more importantly the numeric constants
are all the same.
The cursors you want are:
#define XC_arrow 2
#define XC_xterm 152
