Thank you for the implementation.

Unfortunately the patch output was incorrectly formatted (did your text
editor mangle it? you might want to check whether it removes leading
spaces, that are syntactically significant in a `diff` output; or maybe
some other change was at fault).

I have created a patch file based on this, and committed it with you as
“Author” field. The test suite passes correctly now.

I have updated the upstream bug report to describe this
<URL: https://github.com/jaraco/irc/issues/246#issuecomment-6241767382>,
let's see whether they agree.

In the meantime this is a patch in Debian packaging that allows progress to
the upstream version.
