This is what I was expecting, since AFAIK everything in Debian uses libxcursor to access these cursors, and libxcursor from sarge claims to work fine with /usr/share/icons. > > This is not a "normal" bug.

I don't see any "ping-pong"ing here. I see the location of the alternative being changed, as desired for the R7 transition and with no confirmed ill effects.
