It's possible.  I don't know which RPMs you used, for which distro, from
which packager.  Regardless, this shouldn't be related, since it's dying
finding libXcursor, which is a part of X, not of Xfce.  Again, try
running ldconfig.  Running 'ldd' on
/usr/lib/xfce4/mcs-plugins/mouse_plugin.so (I think that's what it's
called) will show you what libraries are and aren't being found, as well
as what it's looking for.  You can match this up with what's in
/usr/X11R6/lib; if the library names are different, likely you're using
packages not meant for the particular version of your distro (either
that or the packages were created on a different version and then
mislabeled).
