Ack, there's an issue with IPv6 in the POE::* stack:
POE::Component::Server::SOAP using POE::Component::Server::SimpleHTTP
using POE::Wheel::SocketFactory; the latter speaks IPv6 but
::SimpleHTTP doesn't expose this. Cf.
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=74152
(I was also annoyed by this, kgb is about the only service on my
server not speaking IPv6.)

Hm, seems like this would need kgb-bot to have an option to use
POE::Component::IRC's UseSSL option.

Already implemented: single_line_commits

AFAIK they are enabled by default, at least I haven't seen KGB
messages without colours yet :)
(And I wouldn't want to have them all $fg-on$bg).
There's an option use-color for the client; TBH I can't see if it's
enabled by default or not (but the docs imply it's on).
Cheers,
