bug#15263: 24.3.50; rcirc channel activity showing up and then dissappear again

[Daniel Luna]

After upgrading to latest version of emacs-snapshot, rcirc notifications

are broken. Basically (rcirc-track-minor-mode 1) doesn't do what it's

supposed to do. When a new message shows up in an rcirc channel, the

minor mode briefly shows the channel name in the notification, only to

disappear soon after. So rcirc-next-active-buffer stops working.

If a full copy of my .emacs should be necessary to debug this, there's

one available at https://github.com/dLuna/config/blob/master/.emacs

Cheers,

Daniel
