Are you using the -src package from the cygwin mirrors, and the
cygport script? The rxvt shipped by cygwin has been heavily patched
from upstream to support our (32bit) platform; at *minimum* you will
need those patches to build the 64 bit version.
Unfortunately rxvt is pretty far down my list of priorities for
porting to 64bit given its dead-as-a-doornail, ex-parrot status
upstream and relative lack of users. The best I can say is, I'll get
to it eventually.

I used the source from the cygwin mirrors. My assumption was that the
included patches had been applied to the src in the tar ball. I didn't
apply the cygport script.
