-p is used to add additional entries to $PATH. You're mrxvt can not load the
missing the X11 libraries and maybe not even the cygwin1.dll library
maybe this helps.
C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\run.exe -p /usr/X11R6/bin mrxvt -e /usr/bin/tcsh
or
C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\run.exe -p /usr/X11R6/bin -p /usr/local/bin mrxvt -e /usr/bin/tcsh
you may also start with placing mrxvt in /usr/bin (where xterm lives) and use
just a slightly tweaked command
C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\run.exe -p /usr/X11R6/bin mrxvt -e /ust/bin/tcsh
