>> Oddly, backspace doesn't work in rxvt itself. I don't use emacs at all so I don't know whether this suggestion will help you. But when launching rxvt try including the switch
"-backspacekey ^H"
as in, say,
c:\Cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe {lots of switches} -backspacekey ^H -e
/bin/bash --login -i
Does that help?
