Not mine. I've got CYGWIN=tty, and I start rxvt directly (without using
'run') and never get a DOS box. Check out
http://cygutils.netpedia.net/V1.1/rxvt-2.6.2/

Now, that is an older version, but you should be able use the patches &
build instructions I've provided at cygutils, with a little elbow
grease, to build a working, no-DOS-box, rxvt-2.7.2.
