The yellow cursor bug is a typical intel (little endian) problem. It 
does not only show up in remote X11 sessions, that's just where most 
people were reporting it, I guess because X windows with a custom cursor 
icon are not often used locally. I saw it most spectacularly in the 
"gcompris" educational game (exists in Fink) which was basically 
unusable when the bug was present.

As far as I can tell, it affected all versions of xfree86 or xorg on 
intel macs unless specifically patched. The first fix that was sent 
upstream to x.org appeared after Leopard's X11 was released. Are you 
saying that you did not see it on 10.4/intel?
