[BUG] Squeak 2.8 (NT 4.0sp6) IRCConnection>>openConnectionDialog ue

I tried in Squeak 2.9a-2447, and it connects okay.  This is from Unix,
however.  Perhaps the problem is that Squeak's IRC client doesn't have a
fake identd server?

The black windows are known but I can't duplicate it at the moment.... 
I've fixed it before, but never put together a changeset.  If you care
enough to track it down, that would be great.  :)  Do try it from a
newer 2.9a, though, before you spend too much time on it.
