[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]
On Mac OS X version 10.9.4, Emacs 24.3 installed via Homebrew package
manager with options "--cocoa --srgb" does not honor the following settings
in init.el as it should:

It can be recreated by having these in the init file on a similar setup.

(global hl-line-mode 1)
(setq-default line-spacing 10)
(setq-default cursor-type '(hbar . 200)) ;this one does not work correctly

Normally, when line-spacing is set to a value higher than 0, the cursor
height does not span the height of the area highlighted by hl-line-mode.
This bothers me, so I set the cursor-type to hbar and its height to a large
value (200). This is supposed to increase the cursor height to fit the
highlighted area. This works as I intend when I try it on Debian, but not
on OS X. I suspect the problem is in src/nsterm.m, in sections related to
how the cursor with the type HBAR is drawn.

I included two screenshots making the issue clearer.
