The attached is a patch for "hourglass cursor" support on Carbon
Emacs.  Actually, it doesn't change the cursor shape but shows a
progress indicator at the upper-right corner of each frame.  I did so
because Apple Human Interface Guidelines discourage the use of the
busy cursor on Mac OS X, and it seemed to be easier to implement for
me.
