Not sure exactly on the causes of this one yet, but logs indicate that 
something is wrong so am reporting it in case it is something obvious while 
I research further.

Basically, whenever ChanServ sets +b*!user at host in a channel in response to 
an autokick entry, the subsequent attempt to remove the ban from a channel 
results in services logging:

channel: MODE #channel -b *!*@host: ban not found

The bans are usually removed automatically by channel bots to keep the 
channel ban list manageable so I am assuing there is some discrepancy 
between the original announcement by Chanserv of the ban it has set and the 
actual ban it sets or Chanserv incorrectly parsing the /mode -b.  

>From channel:
DOS_BOT_77 (~username at ctcp-35163.cas-lon.golden.net) joined #channel.
#channel: mode change '+b dos_bot*!*@*' by ChanServ!services at ctcp.net
DOS_BOT_77 kicked from #channel by ChanServ: User has been banned from the 
channel
....
(#channel) Channel ban on dos_bot*!*@* expired.
#channel: mode change '-b dos_bot*!*@*' by Bot

services.log:
channel: MODE #channel -b dos_bot*!*@*: ban not found
