The above looks kinda illegal to me.  What you might consider is doing
something like this:

	lock = LockIBase(0);
	CurX = IntuitionBase->MouseX;
	CurY = IntuitionBase->MouseY;
	<calculate delta to where you want the mouse to be>
	<create an input event and send it to input.device>
	UnlockIBase(lock);
