I haven't reproduced it myself, but it looks like it could come from the
following code in exit_one_client() (src/s_misc.c):
/*
** SQUIT going "upstream". This is the remote
** squit still hunting for the target. Use prefixed
** form. "from" will be either the oper that issued
** the squit or some server along the path that
** didn't have this fix installed. --msa
*/
if (sptr->from == acptr)
{
sendto_one(acptr, ":%s SQUIT %s :%s", from->name, sptr->name, comment);
}
else
{
sendto_one(acptr, "SQUIT %s :%s", sptr->name, comment);
}
where exit_one_client() is called from exit_client(), and exit_client() is
called in turn from src/modules/m_squit.c. I haven't traced the code in
detail, but at first glance it looks like this strips the sender from
SQUIT broadcasts after the server is disconnected.
