I do *not* see any mouse pointer corruption on my system.  x86_64 with
a 6600 GT.  From lspci:
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV43 [GeForce
6600 GT] (rev a2)

The very end tip of the arrow does seem to have one pixel that seems
to become about the opposite color of whatever is underneath it;
mostly only noticable when the pointer is on a white background.  I
don't think that is what you are referring to, though : ).
