Is this a dupe of bug 126037?

Does this bug still occur in a recent trunk build? http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/

It's still in trunk.

In GTK+ there is a style property to handle the text cursor color. The style properties are GtkWidget::cursor-color and GtkWidget::secondary-cursor-color. One can use the gtk_draw_insertion_cursor function to draw the correct cursor in GTK+ (if that works in this case). The function will use the style properties and fall back to text[NORMAL] or text_aa[NORMAL] for the secondary cursor if the style properties are not set.

Maybe Ventron or twanno can look into this.

I suppose this is actually a dupe of bug 118308, which can't be fixed currently because the XP part "hooking-up of the nsITheme stuff to the PaintCaret routine" (part of bug 115761) is not done yet.

Sounds like it's not 1.9 material.

Should be fixed by bug 118308
