here is the situation :
* someone is away, the nick has the 'gone' flag for irssi
* /whois him, on servers where away status is showed in the whois
(bahamut and dancer behave like this), even if the whois contains
an "away :" line, irssi resets the 'gone' flag.
* hence someone who was away for irssi and is still away as the whois
says becomes not away for irssi
take my script, whois someone in gray, he becomes in bright even if he is away
i hope it's clearer now
