I am using emacs 24.0.5 under Ubuntu with the following .emacs
(set-cursor-color “red”)
This code works fine on the trunk emacs (2010-10-08). But when I
updated my emacs to the latest trunk, the cursor color changed to
white rather than red (I am using dark background).

What is the value of “red”?

"What is the value of “red”?" I don't understand.
Here is the specific description:
1. Empty the .emacs file.
2. Add the following codes to the .emacs
(setq initial-frame-alist
'((foreground-color . "grey80")
(background-color . "black")
(background-mode . dark)
(cursor-color . "red")))
(setq default-frame-alist
'((foreground-color . "grey80")
(background-color . "black")
(background-mode . 'dark)
(cursor-color . "red")))
(set-cursor-color "red")
These code is supposed to change the background color to black and the
cursor color to red. And these code works fine on the emacs 23.2.

Thanks. I've checked in a fix.
By the way, that last set-cursor-color call should be unnecessary.
