Terminus has most of the greek letters from the range 0x384-0x3ce (I'm not saying they're looking good, but they're certainly not boxes), such as ά, but it does not have any of the extended precombined accented characters from the range 0x1f00-0x1ff0, such as ἔ, and some of the latter appear in your sample. As a fix, try installing a font that has these and is monospaced and is of the right width and height such that urxvt can use it, and specify it either as a primary font or as an alternate font in the urxvt options. Maybe gnome-terminal is already substituting some font more aggressively. Is your urxvt compiled to use xft fonts, not only x fonts?
