When I used to be on IRC and other networks a lot, and I ran my own Jabber 
server on my VPS, the best solution I found was to run an IRC transport and 
then join IRC channels much as any other MUC room on Jabber.  This was highly 
accessible but resulted in latency problems as the machine was hosted in the 
US.  It also occasionally triggered rate limiting on some IRC servers as iChat 
(now Messages) performed many /who queries to get profile information.  But it 
worked, and was highly satisfactory.  I don't know that I'd recommend it for a 
full-time IRC user, but it made it possible for me to drop in for support, etc.

Cheers,
Sabahattin
