Although I am able to configure the cursor face using the usual

While the customization tool added to my .emacs the line:

under the faces configuration command, when emacs starts I get back
the original cursor colors (that are just annoying because I can't
see
the character behind the cursor).
Oh, This emacs is compiled by me, from cvs (about 15 days ago), under
MacOS/NS.
I can't reproduce this, so it's likely a bug on NS. Adrian, can you
reproduce it?
I cannot.
Nikolaj Schumacher added later that:
The same seems to happen for the region face. The background color
reverts to ns_selection_color sometime after the custom variables are
read. (It works when reading the custom settings again, later.)
I looked at the code and cannot see how this could be happening. The
region face is set to ns_selection_color in ns-win.el, but this
should be overridden by .emacs read later. This should have been
cleared up by David Reitter's changes around 2009-03-14, though since
the ChangeLog entries are incomplete it is difficult to be certain
when the last broken code was removed.
Anyway, if you still observe these in a recent build let me know and
I'll go on a more thorough witch-hunt.
thanks,
Adrian

In Emacs 24, the doc for the cursor face will say:
Currently, only the `:background' attribute is meaningful; all
other attributes are ignored.
With regards to the region face:

This line was removed from ns-win some time ago, so I imagine this is
fixed too.
Please open a new report if there are still issues in the latest version.
