The embedded code copy is not used anymore since version 1.1.7-1.
Quoting debian/changelog:

  * Since Debian Policy 3.8.0, embedded code copy are officially not
    allowed in Debian anymore.  As it was a minor fork of irssi, the
    silc package providing the official SILC client has been
    discontinued.
  * Use a custom build system for the irssi plugin.  We now
    Build-Depends on irssi-dev instead of relying on irssi embedded code
    copy.  (Closes: #448186, #522080)
  * Remove extra symlinks for irssi plugin.  (Closes: #476177)
  * Ship the silc package as a transitional package which depends
    on irssi and irssi-plugin-silc and contains a NEWS file.

Lenny ships version 1.1.7-2 and Etch is unsupported at this time.
Nothing to act on, hence closing this bug.

Cheers,
