Note the memory leak there; unlike GtkObject subclasses, there is no
"floating" flag on a GdkCursor. You need to gdk_cursor_destroy() the
cursor after you pass it to set_cursor.

Hard to say without seeing the code - are you doing this in the
_realize function? Do any other widgets set an explicit cursor
(e.g. GtkEntry sets the I-beam)? If so you have to explicitly change
the cursor for those widgets to NULL (NULL means "use cursor from
parent").
