I was looking through the code and the support for this is wrapped in

#ifdef IRC_DAL4_4_15
#endif

and uses a "MODE nick +d stamp"

I can't find anything to do with Bahamut support there.  Looking at Bahamut
code it seems all that must be done is "SVSMODE +d nick stamp" instead.

I realise it's not trivial but support for the RC4 encrypted links in
Bahamut would be lovely :)
