One window per nick when connecting to icb over icbirc. #20

Warning: this is obscure.

I use icbirc (http://www.benzedrine.cx/icbirc.html) so I can use ICB with an irc bouncer (znc).

So I have: atomic -> znc -> icbirc -> icbd.

When i jump to an icb network in such a way in atomic, I get weird situation when the history is replayed by znc. Each nick that spoke in the main group has its own window. So instead of one public group I appear to have lots of private messages.

I note that other clients get it kinda right. E.g. androirc has a single group as expected, but every nick appears twice in the nick list.

I understand if you don't want to fix this :) Of course it may not be your bug to fix. There may well be a bug in icbirc, znc, ...

So I looked into this and it appears to be a problem with pIRCbot, which yaaic/Atomic is based on.

I'd be willing to look into this if I had a working connection but have not gotten icbirc to compile.
