OpenGL 3D mouse cursor invisible in Windows 7 guest — at Initial Version

Description
Problem:
When the mouse is captured (i.e. when mouse integration is disabled), the cursor used by Celestia v1.6.0 (a multi-platform 3D astronomy display program) is invisible. It disappears when the cursor position is within the 3D window. The Windows default arrow appears when the cursor leaves Celestia's 3D window.
While slowly moving the cursor into the 3D window, I can see one of the arms of the cursor (a large plus sign) extending past the window border onto the desktop just as the cursor enters the window. None of the cursor's arms are visible in the 3D window itself.
When the mouse is not captured, the cursor is visible in the 3D window and changes back to Windows' default arrow when it leaves Celestia's 3D window, but mouse interactions with Celestia don't work right.
Once I saw a very tiny cursor while the mouse was captured, but was unable to see it in subsequent tests.
As best I can tell, the symptoms are exactly the same whether running VB in full screen mode or in windowed mode.
(I'm sorry if this is a duplicate problem report. I was unable to find any previous mention of this issue except for a hint in ticket #475, which is closed.)
VirtualBox log file: Celestia was started and viewed -- first with mouse integration on and then with it off
