Package: xchat
Version: 2.6.8-0.3
Severity: normal

The squiggle used to underline mispelled words is supposed to be drawn
behind the word, so any descenders are not obscured by the squiggle.
xchat fails to do this, which makes it hard to tell the difference
between, for example, an 'i' and a 'j'.

Prior art: OOo draws the squiggle behind the letter. So does MS Word.
