setting default value |

In a site init file, I'm trying to set different default values for
stuff like 'blink-cursor-mode'.
(setq-default blink-cursor-mode t)
(blink-cursor-mode blink-cursor-mode)
However, if I then select a different setting (i.e. blink-cursor mode
nil) and save the customizations (Options/Save Options), this setting
is not saved.
No I think this is because menu-bar-options-save doesn't notice that
the standard value for blink-cursor-mode is supposed to be different,
so it doesn't bother saving the current value.
Therefore, I tried to do this in my site init file:
(put 'blink-cursor-mode 'standard-value t)
However, it has absolutely no effect. That's because the
customized-value property of blink-cursor-mode simply isn't set
correctly when blink-cursor-mode changes. Theoretically,
customize-mark-as-set should take care of that, checking the
standard-value property. That's why I tried to set it.
Why does this not work???
Thanks for your help!
