Thanks for the bug report!

The official way is to post or email the patch.
In this case, I couldn't accept the patch exactly as you'd written because it
doesn't appear that it would work for security levels < 50 (the "server"
variable would not be defined and you'd get a JS error). Also, you changed the
minimum security level for changing the IRC server from 90 to 50.
So I'm committing a fix which should be correct for all conditions and also
adding a modopts.ini option to change the minimum security level for entering a
custom IRC server. Just set irc_seclevel in the [chat_sec] of your
ctrl/modopts.ini file to 50 and you should be good to go (after getting the
latest chat_sec.js from CVS).

You're very welcome! And thanks again for the bug report and root-cause
analysis.
