OBS: You need to resync your database! The Nickname system is now a separate database model with the result that also channel nicks are more robust.

Fixed a host of issues in the channel and nick handlers and adjoining commands that caused the channel-syscommands to fail in some situations. Resolves issue131. Resolves issue 132. Resolves issue 134.
