rxvt tries to read my PWD in some strange way, have a look:
read(5, "myhost:~/mypwd # ", 8192) = 16
read(5, 0x80698d4, 8176) = -1 EAGAIN
(myhost, mypwd substituted for clearness)

Maybe I'm terribly wrong but you meant to refer to /etc/HOSTNAME
And it's really just the hostname not the FQDN - my machine doesn't seem
to know about it's DN. Have a look at uname(1)
