Hi,
yes, I tried the +ut option.
And no, my /var/run/utmp is not world-writable:
% ls -lrta /var/run/utmp
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root utmp 18432 6. Jan 08:32 /var/run/utmp
xterm seems to use a method which doesn't need write access to /var/run/utmp.

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?
Did you try +ut? If your utmp is (accidentally) world-writable you wouldn't
need setgid utmp.
