I don't see it. I would screenshot it if there was anything to be seen.

Face: cursor (sample) (customize this face)
Documentation:
Basic face for the cursor color under X.
Note: Other faces cannot inherit from the cursor face.
Defined in `faces.el'.

Foreground: unspecified
Background: unspecified
Underline: unspecified
Overline: unspecified
Strike-through: unspecified
Box: unspecified
Inverse: unspecified

Font: unspecified
Fontset: unspecified
Inherit: unspecified
> Do you have some non-standard color schemes defined on those systems?

No, I downloaded Emacs from the official FTP server and just added
set-background-color and set-foreground-color to my Emacs.
I can reproduce it on my system like this:
1. runemacs.exe -Q
2. Evaluate (progn (set-background-color "black")
(set-foreground-color "white"))
3. Notice how the cursor is not displayed when put over e.g. an ending
parenthesis.
4. Notice how the cursor *is* displayed when put over e.g. "progn"
(assuming we're in the *scratch* buffer or any buffer with
lisp-interaction-mode and font locking turned on).
