Hello Marc,
thanks a lot for your fast help!
On SuSE13.1
chown root.utmp /usr/bin/urxvt; chmod g+s /usr/bin/urxvt
solves the problem.
But still I'm confused:
Why does urxvt needs the setgid utmp while xterm and the others don't need this
to enable the registration in utmp?
% ls -l /usr/bin/(xterm|lxterminal|gnome-terminal|urxvt)
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 81888 22. Nov 13:18 /usr/bin/gnome-terminal
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 59552 28. Sep 12:34 /usr/bin/lxterminal
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root utmp 1307664 8. Nov 17:02 /usr/bin/urxvt
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 506832 2. Okt 13:53 /usr/bin/xterm

Any idea what I have to set to get this working?
utmp writing needs to be enabled (+ut) and urxvt needs to have the necesary
permissions (e.g. setgid utmp, depending on your distro).
there is also a bug in urxvtd (not urxvt) in the current release, where a
overzealous protection mechanism in libptytty didn't allow urxvtd to access
utmp when setgid.
