Duncan,
Come to think of it, it just might. Are you launching bash from
cygwin.bat? If so, it is launched with a '--login' option, which will
execute /etc/profile and others. What are the parameters to the bash that
rxvt launches? Do you give the '--loginShell' or '-ls' option to rxvt?
Try running 'rxvt -ls -e "bash --login -i"' and see if the behavior
changes.
