    It's most likely something else, unrelated, as there haven't been any meaningful changes to the ircd in a while. But if you want to revert to older revisions of ircd.js (and it's dependent files), they're all still available in Git:
    ...
    If you find any it starts to work when you revert, let me know.

    I found what happened. I ran jsexec ../exec/ircdcfg.js, which corrupted the ircd.ini contents by changing the block titles from [<category>:<item>] to [<category>:<sequential number>].

    So, my O-lines were indeed missing because they were showing up as [Operator:1] and so forth. This is also true for many of the other headers such as Services, Restriction and Server. I'm in the process of rebuilding my ircd.ini and will test is shortly after, but I anticipate no problems, well other than the one I found. :)

    Okay, good to know. I've created an issue at gitlab.synchro.net for tracking. --
