Ah, then you don't need to add c:\cygwin\bin to the global path.  Great 
-- I really didn't want to get into having setup.exe muck with autoexec.

So, you want something like:

c:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -display :0 -fn "Lucida Console-12" -fg #202020 
-bg #000000 -sl 2000 -e /bin/bash --login -i

Anybody want to provide a patch for setup.exe so that it adds to 
cygwin.bat a REM commented line similar to the above?
