The key bindings are in the GNOME TERMINAL STYLE DEFAULT MACROS section of
the /etc/mrxvt/mrxvtrc , they are the "GotoTab _" macros.

I don't have such a section in my home directory .mrxvtrc .

You could edit the /etc/mrxvt/mrxvtrc as root or you could probably override
it by copying the relevant section to an .mrxvtrc in your home directory and
edit there.  Haven't tried it.
