It appears that when a channel is "registered" on freenode, the server sends a reply of the following form to set the channel's URL:
:zelazny.freenode.net 328 rme #ccl :http://ccl.clozure.com/
CL-IRC doesn't know about this, and signals an error when it encounters it.
Anyway, it might be reasonable to add
(328 :rpl_channel_url)
to *REPLY-NAMES* in variables.lisp.
This event is mentioned in a few places I found via Google:

Perhaps CL-IRC should, by default or as a readily available mode, not enter the debugger upon an unrecognized message, since they are more likely 'uninteresting' than 'program bug'?

How about changing the responsible form from ERROR into SIGNAL then?

I don't know much about cl-irc internals, but it seems like it's not a condition at all, but just another kind of message that has a numeric code and arguments. If cl-irc knows nothing specific about it, client code could, if needed, still inspect the code of the message do something useful with it.

Well, the problem is that in this case, there won't be a class to map the number to. cl-irc uses these classes to dispatch the incoming messages.
Another option is to introduce an 'unknown-message' class and map everything unknown to it. That class can be used to dispatch messages with unknown response codes.

4 years after the initial discussion, this was still on my TODO list! So, today I decided to tackle the issue. I'll go forward and make a new release (hopefully today).
It'd be great if that would allow inclusion of cl-irc from a release tarball instead of from the repository trunk in Quicklisp next month!
Bye,
Erik.
