I had this problem a while ago and figured out a hack for it (although
this is weird) for an old version of rxvt. If I put a symlink in my home
directory as follows, it reads the resources fine:
.Xdefaults -> .Xresources
However, strangely enough, I removed this symlink yesterday and it seemed
to like .Xresources. The version I am running currently is also 2.20-4. So
Iam really not offering a solution unfortunately, but it may help in the
interim. Cheers.
