Couple of suggestions:

  - Find xchat-jimbob in http://perkypants.org/debian. I am still using it,
    even though it's based on 1.5.7, because it kicks the pants out of xchat
    proper.

  - Forget xchat completely and get on the GnomeChat bumper car from hell.
    It's usable ("works") for casual use now, but give it a month or so and
    it will totally decimate xchats 'market share'. It was designed with
    usability in mind from the ground up.
