To answer that, we need to understand mrxvtset.pl.

I grabbed the copy from Debian's mrxvt-common 0.5.4-1 package.
It's comments claim it's simply using xterm escape sequences.
When I run it in either screen or tmux, I get the following behaviour.
Both screen and tmux were running in the Linux framebuffer (fbcon).

    $ convert logo: tmp.xpm
    $ perl mrxvtset.pl -pixmap tmp.xpm | cat -v; echo
    ^[]20;tmp.xpm^G

Maybe screen passes this sequence to its parents and tmux doesn't?
