This is 100% client issue and also invalid as you didn't read CONTRIBUTING.md or give any information requested in it.

You might want to consider moving to HexChat as Xchat is dead and this won't be fixed in it while it's fixed in HexChat. Xchat is also missing support for SASL and TLS (unless pstched by distrobution).
