From the emacs man page (about Xresources):

     Cursor  For color displays, sets the color of  the  window's
             text  cursor.   See  the file /usr/lib/rgb.txt for a
             list of valid color names.

     Mouse   For color displays, sets the color of  the  window's
             mouse  cursor.   See the file /usr/lib/rgb.txt for a
             list of valid color names.

This is just plain wrong, I think that some one needs to compare what is
documented in the man page, with what the code actually does, at least
with respect to resources.
