I tested this and am unable to duplicate on a fully updated F15 ( 
branched )

I went to system settings --> keyboard and turned off cursor blinking (  
the gconf setting appears to be deprecated since it already was disabled 
for me ) and it no longer blinks in Gnome-terminal and Gedit

If you are running rawhide ( what now will become F16 ) expect things to 
be broken for some time since maintainers wont necessary build/update 
components for F16 since all the focus is on branched at the moment ( F15 ).

Note it's not uncommon for reporters to accidently continue to stay on 
the rawhide train instead of disabling rawhide and enable 
updates-testing when it get's branched.

If you need a usable system I recommend that you stay away from the 
rawhide train until it hits alpha which is sometime late August if 
memory serves me correct.
