For me, that file is more "X11" than "Xlib".

when i wrote the xcb tutorial (in the source code, not the one in the 
freedesktop website), i used numerical values, but i think that the values 
in cursorfont.h can be used.

XCB is too low-level to have such file. Imo, it should use cursorfont.h. 
Or maybe having such file (cursorfont.h is not the only one, keysymdef.h 
is another one) generated by an xml description for xlib and xcb.
