Sorry for the inconvenience. I think revert my change is the right
thing. I am on 3G network and have no emacs-24 setup. I wonder if
someone else could help me revert that change. Thanks.

BTW, my use case is to quit all server always, which is opposite of
yours. Rcirc's handling of commands is too restrictive, which is
something I want to rework for 24.2.
