Comment 9 for bug 160131

Yes, I still get this with the standalone erc 5.3-1ubuntu1 on emacs22 on Hardy amd64.

To make the repro steps more effective, one could create an SSH tunnel from localhost 6666 to some remote IRC server -- the SSH crypto is irrelevant here, the point is just to give you an easy way to establish a second server, and disconnect and reconnect it at will.
