+Subject: Make xterm use libxcursor directly
+
+Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/54654>.
+
+This patch makes xterm use libxcursor directly.
+Without it, libx11 would try to dlopen("libXcursor.so.1") and fail.

Thanks :)

Pushed to guix master as commit 32d1f71593dc381880b42a3277fdf457df0be25d.

Now I can stop wiggling my mouse wildly to find where the tiny cursor is.
Phiew :)
