erbot's flood protection does not take into account number of messages
sent within a certain time (maximum allowed is 5 messages in 10
seconds), though it does take into account the size of an individual
message.  ERC's flood protection should not interfere with the latter.

I've already updated the erbot install page on emacswiki; all that
remains is to update the sample .emacs (which we probably ought to
distribute with erbot to make things easier -- want me to add it?).
