IRC Services support seems to be broken on the latest git. I guess it
doesn't help that I'm using a discontinued IRC services application but
since it does provide what is needed I've gotten used to using it anyways.
On the most recent git (compiled into deb packages) rfc1459 support seems to
break. I get the following in my syslog with ircservices attempts to
connect.

Just a thought but the buffering may be a bit off on this. It seems the
commands from ircservices are not being properly interpreted somewhere. The
last built I had that did work correctly. That one had a version string of
ngircd-17.1~55-g5417a72 being it was from the git rep when I did it. The
one I did just now was done today and I got all those errors above. The
debug build doesn't provide any additional information otherwise I would
provide that as well. If there is anything you can advise then I'm open for
it.

Hello,
I am having some trouble with some users connecting to my ngIRCd server
- this only seems to affect some users.
Here's an extract from my log:

My interpretation of the log is that the client is exceeding ngIRCd's
buffer size - can this parameter be tuned, or is this a misbehaving
(outside of RFC) client?
Terry.
