I don't know for sure either, but by the end of a day, it is not

There is a known issue that if you use rxvt and close it by using the
close button then the underlying bash shell hangs around. If you use a
Windows console window and run the shell in it and then close the window
using the close button then the bash shell is properly notified to
terminate and does so. If you are careful and always exit your shells
with "exit" and never use the close button for rxvt windowed shells you
shouldn't get shell processes hanging around.
