Bug#502909: xchat-gnome: weird characters in nicknames

[Luca Bruno]

Package: xchat-gnome
Version: 1:0.18-3
Severity: minor

Hello,
I'm using UTF-8 as you can see.
In the discussion there are weird characters surrounding nicknames which are
very boring:
#<#nickname#>#
Where # is a strange character. I'm not able to copy and paste an example,
or at least this is the result:H
