I had something like that "irc_use_full_network" but i thought you would
like this better becausse of other domain use similar like
"httpd_can_network_connect" etc. Feel free to change it.

No particular reason although i am not sure if this file can hold
sensitive information. It might also come in handy for an irc_admin()
although that would be the only thing one would need irc_admin() for.

Feel free to remove it (and its corresponding file context.

Both are actually untested. Although the the first is afaik common to
user apps with user home content.

The latter is more a guess because irssi wants to search nscd pid. So i
am assuming that it does that because it supports nscd (if one have nscd
enabled, which i do not)

So feel free to either remove that and add nscd_dontaudit_search_pid()
(or similar) or add the auth_use_nsswitch(irc_t)

Can you apply these changes or do i have to submit a new patch?
