AW: [IRCServices] Some problems with bans

The only case, I can imagine, why this is happening, is the following:

User-A sets a ban for User-B.
User-B is kicked from the channel.
User-B has access to ChanServ's unban command.
User-B issues unban.
Services sends channel svsmode of -b.
The hub, where services is connected, sends the ban to the User-B's server.
The Server is Linux.
The ban is removed, but it is not propagated, for there is a bug in 1.4.22
The MODE -b does not arrive to services.
User-B can issue joins, though banned on the other servers.
Other users remove this ban from their server, so there are multiple -b's
arriving to services, although the ban is already removed.

Things that this cannot explain are:

+ MODE -b without source -< solution >- services -debug (users in the channel
might also be asked, whether there was a mode -b)

The solution I can provide is the usage of cvs, to download Bahamut 1.4.23
