New rebuild of X11, now Xcursors won't work?!

I got only the awful black-colored cursor like Knoppix, don'T know where the hell it came from.

But i have had a working other Xcursor, like described everywhere installed in ".icons".
But now, without changing something but "emerge world" (updated X), the Xcursor is gone.

What's so different now, that it doesn't use them?

Tried editing the /usr/share/cursors/xfree/default/index.theme file? That always works for me. It does set the cursor globally, but all my users use the same cursor anyway...

And what exactly did you write in there?
