Bug Description

xchat starts a second instance when recalled from systray no matter if "systray icon" is activated in xchats preferences.

Reproduce: start xchat, close via "Close Window", answer the question if xchat should quit or minimize to systray with "minimize to systray", restore it from "messages systray" (the envelope icon) and you will get another instance of xchat.

Confirmed. Does anyone know a workaround other than rebooting? killall xchat doesn't seem to do the trick.
