Yes, I thought I would implement start_hourglass etc.  Maybe someone wants
to implement it in macfns.c too where the body part also has an empty body
part.

Whichever way of changing the current "#ifdef HAVE_X_WINDOWS" at those
places are enough, but removing the ifdef:s and adding a file with empty
body parts for those ports that does not implement hourglass support makes
the code easier to read IMO.
