It works fine.  Thank you very much.

So, the remaining problem is the one related to the window splitting.
I believe the problem is specific to Carbon Emacs, but let me
summarize how to reproduce it here.

  (1) Launch Carbon Emacs (where blink-cursor-mode is disabled by
      default).
  (2) M-<, C-e, and hit the space bar four times to move the cursor to
      the right fringe area of the first line.  (Now correctly
      displayed as a filled cursor.)
  (3) C-x 2  -> All the cursors disappear.
  (4) C-x 1  -> The cursor comes back to the right fringe just after
                C-x is typed.
  (5) C-x 2
  (6) C-a    -> The cursor in the first window goes to the beginning
                of line, but the cursor at the fringe remains to be
                displayed.
  [The following does not depend on the previous sequence.]
  (7) C-x 3  -> The vertical line separating windows is not displayed
                until some event (e.g., keyboard input) occurs.

If blink-cursor-mode is enabled, (3) and (7) are solved after the
first blink, and (6) does not occur unless you type C-x 2 C-a quickly
before blinking starts.

Although I'm not sure it is related to the above problem, I noticed
that x_make_frame_visible in Carbon Emacs is different from the ones
in other platforms.  It does not wait for a window system event that
tells the frame becomes actually visible to come.  I guess this is the
reason why the "fancy splash screen" is not displayed in Carbon Emacs
with the image support patches.

As for the vertical line separating windows, I noticed that it makes a
flicker in the X11 version if blink-cursor-mode is enabled.
