OK, tried the patch. I updated my git-tree first (using git pull, never really
used git before, but assumed this was correct).

Applied patch, compiled and installed to prefix /usr. The problem certainly
still happens, if even worse now. The cursor was immediately corrupted upon
desktop login, but that might just be because I didn't use the default-theme
(because I had changed it before I logged out and restarted X). Seems small and
transparent cursor themes triggers this most easily through the cursor theme
control panel. And I can definitely say that the patch did not resolve the
issue, that's something at least ..
