rxvt interacts badly with bash line editing

I'm using the version of rxvt from http://www.io.com/~bub/rxvt.html along
with bash from cygwin release 20.1. It mostly works great.
It has one bad feature. When command lines get long, and bash would
normally scroll to the right, it drops down to the next line but still
thinks it is scrolling.
bash line editing works fine in both the Win98 and NT command shells but
exhibits this irritating property in rxvt.
I'm guessing that I have something set up incorrectly but I can't guess
what. Can any tell me how to fix this?
My .bashrc has these lines in it:
export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
export PS1='$ '
export HISTFILE=/d/msl/_bash_history
export
PATH=.:$HOME/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/texmf/miktex/bin:/usr/lo
cal/netpbm/bin
alias emacs=/usr/local/emacs/bin/runemacs
alias gsview=/usr/local/gstools/gsview/gsview32
alias msword="/Program Files/Microsoft Office/Office/winword"
if [ "$COLORTERM" = "rxvt-xpm" ] ; then
export PS1="\e[34m\]\w\[\e[0m\]> "
export TERM=linux
alias ls=ls\ -F\ --color
export LS_COLORS="ex=35"
stty intr ^c susp ^z start ^q stop ^s quit ^\\ erase ^?
fi
My environment variables on NT look like:
