This bug is the plaintext counterpart of #261 (which was related to SSL connections).

The attached patch fixes the problem for plaintext connections. I need to test behavior with SSL connections.

There is no problem when client_side_ssl is enabled.

Tested with these commands:

$ socat -s TCP4-LISTEN:8000 OPENSSL:127.0.0.1:7778,verify=0 &
$ { echo PASS bipnick:mysecretpassword:freenode; echo NICK Pilou; echo USER Pilou 0 Pilou :blah; sleep 2; } | telnet 127.0.0.1 8000 | read
