Validly changed cursors do not always appear.  If you press a button 
inside a panel on which you do a setCursor as soon as the button is 
pressed, I notice that moving the mouse destroys the busy cursor, 
especially moving outside the panel and back again.

If you keep the mouse perfectly still when setCursor is called, I have 
had better luck getting it to appear as busy and stay that way.  Once I 
move it, especially outside the panel, it frequenly never appears busy 
again.
