For ircu, there's:
http://web.mit.edu/klmitch/Sipb/devel/src/ircu2.10.11/doc/p10.html

ircnet's appears to have docs in the tarball:
ftp://ftp.irc.org/irc/server/irc2.11.1p1.tgz

I'll see what I can do to help with these. Meanwhile, I'll just make a
package, since I need one.

There's also been a request that I use a different name for the package,
as 'ircservices' is 'very generic'. I'm not sure what you think about
that.
