Hi!

This is due to the autotools. This crap is not aware of the ability of 
building for multiple architectures on Macs. I suppose you ran into it 
while building the perl module. For some reason the autocrap tries to 
link for both ppc and intel architectures instead of the native one. 
Don't ask me why ;-) I disabled the perl module in the official build 
since the linkage seems to be non-standard. There is a warning about a 
non-portable perl binding.

The SVN trunk version moved to Qt4, I wasn't able to build with Qt3 any 
more.
Your freeze is in reality a focus/modality error. For some unknown 
reason the user dialog stays in foreground while the alternative 
nickname window is rendered in background. (No, you cannot see chose it 
using Exposé.) There were and probably are more of such situations in 
KVirc. As far as I remember Alexey fixed some of them which I found. 
But it's lots of time ago. Unfortunately this is a Mac specific 
behaviour so it may even be an issue with Qt3. I'll look into it. But 
I'd like more to move to Qt4 and Cmake.

Thanks for testing :-)
