Perhaps, I ran out of steam trying to figure out how to modify the
cursor. I think I ran through several themes, as well, but nothing
showed up.

Does stock Emacs default to cursor colors like "chartreuse" / off-white
instead of good old fashioned colors like Black, White, etc?

Eli: Good idea to add to PROBLEMS.  I will check up on the way to
submit. Not sure if this is an Emacs bug per se -- it could be Citrix.
