Should (note, *should*) be as simple as running setup, checking the "Src"
box for rxvt, editing /usr/src/rxvt-2.7.9-4/src/feature.h to uncomment
"#define UNSHIFTED_SCROLLKEYS", and then running
(cd /usr/src/rxvt-2.7.9-4; ./configure; make; make install).
This will put your new rxvt binary in /usr/local/bin.

You can also define UNSHIFTED_SCROLLKEYS via a configure argument (exact
method left as an exercise for the reader).
