As of 2013-07-15, the instructions on that (closed) thread are slightly off for xubuntu 13.04 with xfce4-terminal 0.6.1

I expect you all know but, for anyone arriving here via google, here is the latest:

Edit $HOME/.config/xfce4/terminal/terminalrc and replace

MiscCursorBlinks=FALSE

with

MiscCursorBlinks=TRUE

and restart your terminal.

If you are on a different distro, desktop or terminal version, YMMV.
