URxvt.internalBorder: 0
URxvt.externalBorder: 0

You're right, I just tried it and that setting in rxvt didn't matter.
Also, there are no other settings in rxvt regarding this.

I remember I had this problem long time ago, but actually the problem was in the window manager, in dwm this is solved in dwm config by this :
Code:
static const int resizehints = 0;    /* 1 means respect size hints in tiled resizals */


So, you might want to check your WM and find similar thing if it's configurable.

Currently I'm using dwm and rxvt and smart resizing workfs fine.

That's my understanding, I could be wrong though :?

Tested working but with scrollbar issue.
So it should be fine for those not using scrollbar.
EDIT: Tested method is the first, e.g. using LD_PRELOAD method.
Thks 4 ur attention.

Scroll bar is back in place when moving the terminal window, using each of the above reported methods.
So it might be possible to patch urxvt.
