I don't know why your e-lisp doesn't work.  Anyway, I use the
RESOURCES (in ~/.Xdefaults)

epoch*cursor.foreground:	springgreen
epoch*cursor.background:	black
epoch.screen.cursor.glyph:	68
epoch.minibuf.cursor.glyph:	106
epoch*cursor.color:		coral

and they work.  To try them out, do a `xrdb', then restart epoch.
