I think I found the problem. My $HOME variable is
set to another location than I want. Before using
rxvt I explicitly set HOME in my .bashrc... When
I set HOME in the regular bash prompt and run
"rxvt -e /bin/bash --login -i" all is well. So, my
problem now is, how do I set my HOME in a batch
file? If that can't be done, how can I set HOME
before I call rxvt?
You can permanently edit environment variables in Windows using
control panel, system, advanced, environment variables. Or for
a single use, you should try 'set /?' in a cmd.com window, for ideas
on setting environment variables in batch files.

Alternatively, you could do:
rxvt -e /bin/bash --login --rcfile /cygdrive/h/.bashrc -i
Thus combining your current configuration with the way you want it to be...

arrived... Are you ready to go?
