[IRCServices] +O overrideable by non-opers in UnrealIRCd netmerge

[Craig McLure]

Personally, i think it should at LEAST inform U:Lined servers, but thats no my decision.

The reason i posted this request, is because the UnrealIRCd team deem it un-nessecery to add this bugfix.. err.. i mean, feature :/
