--- Comment #2 from Jin Liu <ad.liu.jin at gmail.com> ---
This is actually a GTK4 bug/regression. It's triggered when you have global
scaling AND a cursor theme with "nominal size" (the size you choose in the
Cursor Theme KCM) different from image sizes.

E.g. if you run `xcursor-viewer /usr/share/icons/breeze_cursors/cursors/`,
you'll see info like "Nominal size: 24. Image size: 32x32.".

But for `xcursor-viewer /usr/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors/`, it will be "Nominal
size: 24. Image size: 24x24.".

So it can be worked around by using a cursor theme like Adwaita.

I've already submitted the fix, but it hasn't been merged yet:

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/7722

So I'll change this to UPSTREAM, as this doesn't really require
`wayland/cursor-shape-v1` to fix. And it worked in GTK 4.14. It's a recent
regression in their code.
