I had the same problems patching my 2.5.66 and so applied the patch by hand,
too. The problem with the wrong shaped cursor was here, too, I solved it with
the attached patch. The 'data' area was not initialized correctly. The patch
also uses 'memset()' to generate the 'mask' instead of writing the bytes by
hand...

I hope this helps you,too!
