I didn't say rxvt does anything wrong, I said there are 'too many things *I* 
do' that don't work right.  Yes, it's all I/O related, but I'm often running 
windows scripts and programs as part of my normal tasks that don't work 
right with xterm/rxvt/etc.  If I were doing pure Cygwin development, then 
I'm sure I would have few problems.
