I did not experience those.  Could you research further?

Those "freezes" were due to the fact that Rxvt incorrectly updates
stderr in a blocking way, or not at all (don't know which).  There
are more things that do not work in Rxvt, and only after trying the
same in cmd (which I do not like for various reasons) I found out
that rxvt.exe is at fault.

I would be glad if somebody managed to compile rxvt herself and fix
all those bugs (see http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/ for a short
list of the most pressing issues I found).  As it is, I have enough
work to do with the rest of msysGit, and for the moment, I can at
least work in cmd.  Even ssh push works.

Hi guys,

Instead of hacking away on this old terminal, what about simply including another nice Open Source project?

On Windows we have a replacement terminal, which has all the features you want, and also supports tabs like Konsole. I've used it for several years, and it works great. Have a look and see if you like it, then we can add it to the repo:
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/console/

Original name, ey? :-)
