Cursor became al right after installing Consolas font in Wine.
So this issue may be closed.

Instructions to install Wine with Consolas font on OSX:

brew install wine --without-x11 --devel
brew install winetricks
# set Wine to default to Windows 7
winetricks win7
# install Consolas font
winetricks consolas

almost ready to go, download latest Windows automated Red build and launch it with wine:

curl -o red.exe http://static.red-lang.org/dl/auto/win/red-19feb16-f834e41.exe
wine red.exe

[should be similar with apt-get (Debian) and pacman (Arch Linux)]

I recommend including these instructions in the Red Installation instructions and thereafter close this issue.
