 > 	Unlike xterm from xsrc, rxvt doesn't handle the mentioned keys correctly. For example when running "mp3blaster" or "mutt" (from pkgsrc) in xterm the apps react like excepted when pressing this keys, but not in rxvt. The keyboards are 105-key with a german layout, connected through USB and PS/2.

 You didn't say anything about setting TERM, so I guess
 that is your problem.
 
 Try
 	export TERM=rxvt
 in the rxvt terminal window (TERM must always match
 the actual terminal).
