Again, DISPLAY not set? But your alternative will leave you with a console window, or at least briefly. If this is not tolerable, check out 'run'.
I have to admit that adding the line
set DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
before ssh -Y remote_computer_name mathematica
solved the problem of the superfluous rxvterm (Thanks!).
However, why then does the man page for ssh admonish users against setting the DISPLAY variable manually?
