I have tested gcursor with xorg and it will fail compile because of  
missing xrender.pc. I didn't check nor realized that if xorg-lib already  
has libXrender, I just ammused that it needs libXrender so it's why I  
asked and never gave the enough detail. However, Franz has gave the  
perfect answer with bugzilla and etc of missing xrender.pc. Thanks! :-)

Here's error of gcursor compile:
=========================================

         glib-2.0
         gobject-2.0
         gtk+-2.0

         libgnomeui-2.0
         libglade-2.0
         gconf-2.0
         xcursor
         ... gnome-config: not found

Package xrender was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `xrender.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'xrender', required by 'Xcursor', not found

configure: error: Library requirements (
         glib-2.0

         libgnomeui-2.0
         libglade-2.0
         gconf-2.0
         xcursor
         ) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment  
variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can  
find them.
===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
=========================================
