I am not able to provide a screenshot with mouse pointer, but it led me to a workaround.
After taking a screenshot I displayed it using "qiv" image browser and the pointer got back to normal.
Displaying it with another image viewer (display from ImageMagick) does not help.
The "qiv" workaround is so good that after using qiv I am unable to reproduce this behaviour until i restart X11.
After quitting and starting X11 I can reproduce that misbehaviour again.
