Probably not. That said, I *think* it did work fine when I tested it, but it may have become broken since then. But this API was mainly intended to provide a way to change Allegro's substitute cursors if no native cursor is available. That there is a way to the Allegro cursor as well this way is partly a side-effect of the implementation and partly born from the idea that set_mouse_sprite() could be made strictly identical to set_mouse_sprite_bitmap(CURSOR_ALLEGRO,bmp); select_mouse_cursor(CURSOR_ALLEGRO).

That would be extremely nice if it was! As it is, I have to try to get my head around the subtleties for the compatibility layer in the new_api_branch.

I've committed the clarifications to the docs.
