Testing Mageia 5 64-bit
A color VT102 terminal emulator for the X Window System.

 https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13299#c7
has a PoC from a previous update (thanks yet again to Claire), shown below post update. The 'after' case should apply here.

Installed version rxvt-unicode-9.20-5.mga5 from normal repos, tried it briefly without exercising its specialitites. Had not then discovered the earlier test...
-------------------------------------
Updated to: rxvt-unicode-9.20-5.1.mga5
It seems to work normally. This time I did the old PoC:
 $ echo $'\e]3;?WM_CLASS\x07'; read -d $'\a' x; printf "\n%q\n" "$x";
 
 ^[]3;^G
 $'\E]3;'
and the ouptut is correct (believe it!).

Update OK.

On mga5-32 in a vbox VM

Installed from /release:

- ncurses-extraterms-5.9-21.mga5.i586
- rxvt-unicode-9.20-5.mga5.i586

following Lewis' lead tested previous POC

$ echo $'\e]3;?WM_CLASS\x07'; read -d $'\a' x; printf "\n%q\n" "$x";

^[]3;^G
$'\E]3;'

Update installed cleanly:

- rxvt-unicode-9.20-5.1.mga5.i586

repeated test:

~]$ echo $'\e]3;?WM_CLASS\x07'; read -d $'\a' x; printf "\n%q\n" "$x";

^[]3;^G
$'\E]3;'

Also ran several commands including mc. 
All seemed to work as expected.

OK for mga5-32

Is there a way to increase the font size in this thing? I could barely read it.

Unless you are planning to be a regular urxvt user and want to know everything about it, the simplest way to increase the font size is to create ~.Xdefaults and add the line

URxvt.font: 9x15

When next launched urxvt will use misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-iso8859-1 which will be easy to read.
