Comment(by Dymaxion):

 I've hit this problem as well; the server I'm connecting to in this case
 is pretty much out of my control.  SSL is mostly being used to tunnel the
 connection and handle cases where networks are IRC-hostile; whether or not
 the certificate is compromised is of no particular concern.  I'd highly
 prefer that the mechanism for this wasn't intentionally inconvenient, as
 there are legitimate reasons to do keep using expired certs.
