The original rxvt is no longer packaged in Debian, as far as I can see. There's rxvt-unicode, which is what I use, which has most of the same look and feel as rxvt, but is substantially larger. Between xterm and rxvt-unicode you should have most of your "basic no-frills terminal" needs met by one or the other.
