Impossible to exit rxvt, now

Just upgraded. Now on my system

All of

    \Cygwin\bin\bash --login -i; rxvt

and

    \Cygwin\bin\rxvt -e /bin/bash --login -i

and

    \Cygwin\bin\rxvt -e /bin/login {username}

result as required (and as for months past) in a nice rxvt terminal window.
(It can be tweaked with loads of switches.)

However, on pressing <Ctrl-d>, or typing exit, to exit, the terminal window
freezes, necessitating either a mouse-click on the top RH [x] close button,
or <Ctrl-Alt-Del> followed by [End Task], to close down. Strange.

I've tried all of "nothing at all" and -tn cygwin and -tn rxvt to see
whether anything helps, but it doesn't.

cygcheck output available if it helps or is needed.
