Sorry if this is a FAQ, but is IRC broken under the Oct 14 2.2-SNAP

 Address family not supported by protocol family  

Any ideas?

If you put garbage in a computer nothing comes out but garbage.  But
this garbage, having passed through a very expensive machine, is
somehow enobled and none dare criticize it.
