   Okay, sorry for the three successive posts to the newsgroup, but I added a   
   "/msg" command to Contiki IRC, and in a one-minute test it seems to work   
   well enough to allow me to verify my identity with NickServ! I'm reluctant   
   to put in a pull request, since I suspect my changes aren't in keeping   
   with the quality of the rest of the code, but it's up at   
   github.com/jstoddard/contiki -- It mainly involves the new function   
   ircc_privmessage and a corresponding PT_THREAD procedure, as well as a new   
   member in the ircc_state struct for the message recipient.
