Do you have any Perl extensions configured that you think could be affecting it? Is your vimrc doing anything with :set clipboard, etc?
I tested with a .vimrc that contains only set mouse=a and rxvt-unicode is totally default with no configuration from me. This installation is totally new and has almost no configuration done to anything yet. The thing is, I have these exact same versions of vim and rxvt-unicode on my old debian installation, and there the update works, though sluggishly. So it might be hard to reproduce on an old installation, even though I can't understand why it is like that. But this new installation shows the bug. I suggest you make a quick minimal installation of etch with just rxvt-unicode and vim and the obvious necessarities on some temporary partition, and the bug should appear.
