This should work around a bug where receiving a null byte over irc would
basicly make gaim ignore all further input on that irc
connection, eventually resulting in a ping timeout.

Since you can't see null bytes, This was actually pretty weird and confusing.

Of course, IRC should never send a client a null byte. But we're doing some
odd things with irc at work, so...
