Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 both have this issue with cursor masking. I don't think it's inverted. The screenshot shows a black cursor with no white outline. If it were inverted, the outline would be present.

What we're getting is the shape of the cursor, but not the bitmap that would normally go with it. I tried switching to various cursors and all of them were just showing the mask.

I tried configuring the server to allow all types of color depths, and tried connecting at my native desktop depth of 24 bits, and this did not fix the issue. I also tried 15, 16, and 32 combinations.

This issue doesn't exist when connecting to a Server 2008 R1 server, so it's some R2/Win7 change that did it. Hoping for an upstream fix soon.
