I don't think this patch has reason to be deferred. It can't possibly 
break anything, as it only syncs the cursor visuals, which is only 
needed because X11 has per-window cursor. Since Windows itself has a 
global cursor, then theoretically the cursor should be "permanently" 
synced for it to have Windows behavior.

Obviously it's prohibitive to do that, but in this case it doesn't 
really break anything other than adding a round-trip to the wineserver 
when a "sizemove" drag operation begins, which needless to say is 
insignificant. If the cursor was already synced then nothing happens.
