There was an issue with urxvt for which I've found a workaround thanks
to a blogger from livejournal[1]. The error message was:

(libev) port_getn: Error 0

I've created a package with a workaround:

http://mirror.opencsw.org/testing/urxvt-9.06,REV=2009.10.06-SunOS5.10-i386-CSW.pkg.gz
http://mirror.opencsw.org/testing/urxvt-9.06,REV=2009.10.06-SunOS5.10-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz

Enjoy your unicode terminals!

As a side note, urxvt won't be released in OpenCSW in the near future;
the problem is that it doesn't build on Solaris 10, and I don't have
the bandwidth to make it compile on Solaris 8. If you're interested in
making it work on Solaris 8, I'll be happy to help you with setting up
the environment. There's also the possibility of getting an account on
the buildfarm.
