Created attachment 390180 [details, diff] System-wide config for current git-version of ZNC Works for me with attached patch (i just transfered the changes to the current git clone).
The patch posted by d00p no longer works.
Created attachment 395456 [details, diff] znc-1.2-555-gce3882e-system-wide-config.patch updated system-wide-config patch to current-git version of znc
