Comment(by sysrqb):

 I know we like to pick on irssi, but this may be less irssi and more the
 crypto lib it uses (openssl?), but I guess it doesn't make a huge
 difference. There was an open issue on google code[1] that we decided was
 invalid which involved irssi connecting to the freenode hidden service.
 This was not using ssl and the connection was successfully established.

 Also, while I was looking for the above ticket, I came across [2] which
 may be relevant.
