IRC protocol. It is designed to be small, fast, portable and compatible to RFC
standards, and most IRC clients.
libircclient features include:
* Full multi-threading support.
* Single threads handles all the IRC processing.
* Support for single-threaded applications, and socket-based applications,
which use select()
* Synchronous and asynchronous interfaces.
* CTCP support with optional build-in reply code.
* Flexible DCC support, including both DCC chat, and DCC file transfer.
* Can both initiate and react to initiated DCC.
* Can accept or decline DCC sessions asynchronously.
* Plain C interface and implementation
(possible to use from C++ code, obviously)
* Compatible with RFC 1459 and most IRC clients.
* Free, licensed under LGPL license.
* Good documentation and examples available.

Note:
Fix a crash bug when modperl was loaded on some arches
PERL_SYS_INIT3 was added to modperl in r1155-1158 to fix modperl on arches like
hppa. This added an invalid cast which caused a segfault.
If you have:
const char *pArgv[];
Then pArgv will point to the same memory location as &pArgv. This pointer was
then casted to (char ***) which is one level of pointers too much for this
pointer.
Thanks to an anonymous reporter who pointed out the crash.
Thanks to pippijin for helping me understand the C++ magic.

based on the Qt4 framework. Distributed means that one (or multiple)
client(s) can attach to and detach from a central core that stays
permanently online. Re-attaching your client will show your IRC
session in the same state as you left it in (plus whatever happened
while you were gone), and this even when you re-attach from a
different location. An optional Beginner's Mode completely hides
this feature, so Quassel IRC can be used like a traditional client.

- Software changes include:
o Remove the remains of servlink_path from the config file parser.
o Userlog now logs the users IP address as well as their hostname.
o Whowas now supports showing the users IP address as well as hostname.
The same rules apply to showing the whowas IP as apply to showing
whois_actually and uses the same numeric.
o Double the size of the whowas array for large networks. This comes
at a hit of about 2MB or so of memory.
o Fix the block heap garbage collection code.

Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.
Changes to Mk/*:
- Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
- Remove CONFIGURE_TARGET hack in various bsd.*.mk
- USE_GNOME=gnometarget is now an no-op
Changes to individual ports, other than removing the CONFIGURE_TARGET hack:
= pkg-plist changed (due to the ugly CONFIGURE_TARGET prefix in * executables)

irc directory tree with server, channel and nick name directories.
In every directory a FIFO in file and a normal out file is created.
The in file is used to communicate with the servers and the out files
contain the server messages. For every channel and every nick name there
are related in and out files created. This allows IRC communication from
command line and adheres to the Unix philosophy.

Changes:
o sqlite3 dependency restored.
o Added support for services' ircd-shortcut commands make options.
o Added dependency on PERL for generation of ircd-shortcut modules.
o The example EFNet configuration file is not helpful because it has not been updated
for ratbox-3. It therefore is not installed as standard by this port version, but should
be back in the next update.
Software changes include:
o Change -lock klines and friends to now use the ADMINKLINE etc commands.
o Change to only support TS6.
o Fix remote kline reasons.
o Have sqlite3 checking use pkg-config when possible.
o Move identd checking back into the ircd, this seems to have been more
problematic than what it was worth.
o Add experimental gnutls support - note that CHALLENGE does not work when using
just gnutls.
o Some helpfile cleanups and additions.
o Fix compile error when zlib is not found.
o Remove some restrictions on k/d/x/resv reasons that are no longer needed.

- sqlite3 dependancy temporarily removed due to sqlite3 detection problem.
- Add USE_LDCONFIG to register shared libs.
Changes include:
- Add admin only -lock klines, doing KLINE -lock will allow admins to add klines
that normal opers cannot remove.
- Modify bantool to have a -u option that updates the database schema if upgrading
from previous betas, this needs to be run to support the -lock kline changes.
- Fix cidr klines so they work again.
- Update included sqlite3 to the latest revision.
- Allow kline/unkline of a bare host or address, this gets treated as *@host.
- Report when an invalid kline is passed, instead of silently ignoring.
