One of the cursors listed doesn't exist in the resource fork of the
file it's opening. It should, with a tool like ResEdit, be fairly
easy to determine which is the offender.
Alternately, you can comment out each line one by one and see which
one(s) are the problem. The named cursors are part of the MacOS
proper, so they shouldn't be the problem. I'd start with "hand"
myself.
