Ah, that's the problem.  Try LucidaConsoleP  (patched) from
http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/bashprompt/

Or the vgafonts from the same location.  LuConP is just LucidaConsoleP, 
patched to put the line draw chars where codepage:oem can find them.

It'd be nice to distribute LuConP with rxvt, but there's that whole 
copyright thing...
