Hmmm.

Using your command on my Win2K machine, the new rxvt works fine in
native mode.  However, using your command on my WinNT machine, I get the
stackdump when trying to run in native mode.  (X mode works fine on both
machines).  Both machines are configured with cygwin 1.3.2(0.39/3/2)
(built from CVS on 4.27) -- but I get the same behavior after reverting
to 1.3.1.

It really looks like the new rxvt is taking advantage of a 2000-ism that
is not available on NT.  Any reports out there from Win95/98/Me ?
