: doesn't, it just makes rxvt exit.

OK, this is very vague.  Can you provide more information about what
your command does?
 
: I'm using ioctl(fd, TIOCSTI, cp) to stuff characters into the
: keyboard buffer in <command>, can anyone suggest any reason why this
: might not work with "rxvt -e <command>"?

You've isolated the problem to that call?  What error is it giving?
