Good question.
Let's see, here's what I found:
The cursor disappears during any screensaver that displays photos:
-abstract
-cosmos
-forest
-etc.
The cursor remains on screen when there's any image manipulation other than basic panning/fading, which is basically every other screensaver. (could be OpenGL related)
Also, interestingly enough, the cursor dissapears when previewing the screensaver in the control panel, but not when activated normally.

I have the same problem. I read in another post that This problem is caused by the divx quicktime plugin which is still not fully supported in tiger/quicktime 7 (While they say 5.2.1 doesnt work with tiger, it does just with some glitches) . It really isn't much to worry about. But it is really quite annoying I agree. But sadly I can't offer a fix.
