m56-129-29, an SGI Indy, exhibits the strange SGI color problem.  My
root window cursor looks like a red X with either black or white
vertical stripes.  The text in this Emacs session includes a teal
address with white vertical stripes.  It seems like losing and
regaining the input focus is sufficient to make the color "correct,"
though this seems odd somehow.
