I'll need a few more details than "it broke rxvt".

If the breakage wasn't so obvious, I would have had the same response.

But, really, there is no reason to assume that something is so obvious
as to not provide details. *Please* when reporting a problem explain
what the problem actually is.

In this case: rxvt starts (I see window opening) and then disappears
