It turns out that if you send "PASS foo" then after successful connection, some servers will use this password when the NickServ pops up. Freenode does this, which is why I was confused when it worked fine for me. OFTC does not do this, which of course is why you saw it. So there you go. We've all learned something new. This is actually a wishlist bug for adding a nickserv-password connection parameter to idle. There's already a bug about this upstream. Maybe I'll do that now.
