The kgb.conf file shipped in 1.52 has '-port: 6667', which doesn't 
help when the (silent) default for 'use_ssl' is 1 and I get the same 
behaviour as you locally. Adding use_ssl: 0 helps here, and I bet 
leaving the default for use_ssl and changing the port to 6697 would 
help too.

Yeah, sorry about that. We seem to constantly forget that there are 
other instances besides kgb-[0-2]

Cloning the silent failure when use_ssl is 1 and the port doesn't 
support SSL as a new big.
