Subject: Strange SHELL bug in rxvt
X-Sun-Charset: US-ASCII

rxvt should obey the SHELL environment variable when called without -e.
Strangely, it does only if SHELL != /bin/bash. In the latter case, it
uses /bin/sh instead. If SHELL = /usr/bin/bash or /bin/tcsh or /bin/sh,
it works correctly. Also rxvt -e /bin/bash works.
