(Get the code!)
I have reproduced the same on Ubuntu 13.10 (KDE), Linuxmint 16 (KDE), and now also Linuxmint 16 (Cinnamon).
I will attach screenshot (using camera, where you can see the actual phenomenon), Screen capture DOES NOT capture the error, I will attach that to next comment. Maybe that helps to isolate it.
The error has always been on primary screen of a dual screen setup. Screen for extended desktop does not have this. Even a moderate googling shows that multiple persons are suffering from this. Usual suspects are xorg and/or fglrx/Catalyst drivers.
It takes a while for the mouse pointer corruption to manifest after a boot, and when it does, it comes when moving the mouse cursor from secondary screen to primary. Reboot resolves the issue.
