A bit of preliminary testing (not in erc proper) does not show up any 
problems. You don't want a total replacement: some of the grepped out 
entries are defcustom types, which should still be 'face (as that's
not a property being applied, it's type info for the defcustom mechanism).

I've modified my erc instance appropriately, I'll let it run for a couple of 
days and get back to you.
