Really? To my knowldge, bare MinGW and msys does not support the cursor.
It is found in the GnuWin32 packages and I always use it on msys+MinGW+GnuWin32.

http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/

Here you will find pdcursor.

Perhaps if the componets of the pdcursor are placed at indicated by Brian, you will be able to use it.
