Rev Built-in cursors IDs

[Eric Chatonet]

Hi Richard,

As I said, I understand the idea to bring IDs back into the  
"reserved" range stated in the documentation.
But as far as I know (I have just verified), cursors IDs had not  
changed since Rev 1.1.1 (the oldest version I have)
So it seems to be a real 2.6.1 novelty :-(
