This is the famous "yellow cursor" bug. In the Leopard X11 (=xorg-7.2) 
sources, the fix is here:
<http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/xserver.git;a=commitdiff;h=2c8e36ecd16bd7fea83f3adbd5bef9fef8587f44>
In the older xorg-6.8 you are trying to build, the file to fix would be 
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/apple/quartz-cursor.c, see the patch here:
<http://homepage.mac.com/lycestra/yellowcursor.patch>, discussed here:
<http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060316124704289&query=x11>
