Say, I'm glad others have been having this problem.  For me it happens
with particular regularity in Excel: ask for a recalc, get a permanent
(up to 3-fingered salute) hourglass instead.  But it also happens in
other apps.  Two possible "causes" in my case: PC-NFS, and (based on recent
traffic here) curse.exe.  Is there a pattern?
