Fixed in revision 3659.

That cursor you mentioned is not supposed to be used that way. It's
defined in the SDK as IDC_APPSTARTING.
It should only be used if an app is starting up, or if an app is doing
something in the background, but you still can use all/most of its
features. And the commit dialog is blocked during that time (you can
*only* enter a log message, but nothing else).
