It is not a bug. The displayList stores it objects in a Array, wich starts at 0. So Array["obj1","obj2","obj3","obj4"] has 4 children wich are located at position 0, 1, 2, 3. If you remove a child every other moves up 1 place.
So stage.numChildren is accordingly out of range.

If we assume that Karim's custom cursor is already a child of the stage, then setChildIndex() should be more efficient. So I guess it depends on the implementation. Interestingly, I get a RangeError with this: stage.setChildIndex(customCursor, stage.numChildren); but this works: stage.setChildIndex(customCursor, stage.numChildren - 1); However, stage.addChildAt(customCursor, stage.numChildren); does not trigger the RangeError, and stage.addChildAt(customCursor, stage.numChildren - 1); still produces the desired result. If this is a bug then 'stage.numChildren - 1' would be the safe way to go.
