Even though this bug has been rejected, i'll jump in ;)

how about making xchat depend on xdg-utils and call xdg-open instead of x-www-browser. xdg-open is aimed to be a generic replacement to gnome-open and alike.

It should use the preferred applications to open the URL you want, instead of using the system default.
