I was able to trace with this command-line:

$ strace -ttt -f -o rxvt-bash-strace.txt rxvt

This uses bash-3 which is sufficient to demonstrate the prompt
problem.  I uploaded the trace to
http://agriffis.n01se.net/misc/rxvt-bash-strace.txt

I think the interesting part starts at line 9207, where bash (pid
11715) writes some of the prompt.  It's then interrupted by
SIGWINCH.  On line 9218 it tries again, and on 9241 rxvt finishes
reading from bash.

Not sure quite how to translate this into something actionable,
though. :-)
