Actually, I think it is a very elegant solution. However, I would wonder about security issues in scaling up. It might work well for a 10 person company, but what if you want to add security-sensitive information over the messaging layer? Are there any good kerberized IRC clients or servers out there? As an alternative, I can think a Kerberized Jabber, or even Jabber/SSL/LDAP/Kerberos (though that sounds just aweful to maintain). Jabber would also have the advantage in that one could allow off-line messaging too. However guaranteed delivery or error might be more difficult. A second point is that Asterisk's AGI ought to allow you to plug into your perl scripts with more information than you can with a system() call.
