[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

When using the box cursor-type the cursor is stretched over the glyph
under it, acting as if the value of x-stretch-cursor were non-nil. The
value of that variable doesn't seem to have any effect.

I'm attaching a screenshot of emacs -Q with a cursor over a tab
character.

Having looked at this, the variable is respected, it's largely the same
code as the x version.
if the cursor colour and the foreground face are different it will show up

The actual error is that the colour selected to draw was the foreground
face rather than the background used. this patch should correct it

Looks like this has been fixed in Emacs 29 -- with pgtk, the cursor has
normal size over a stretch glyph if x-stretch-cursor is nil (and is
stretched if non-nil).

So I'm closing this bug report.
