No, but I'm going to start looking ASAP. A google search on revconnecttome
turned up some interesting hits:

From:
http://www.lwave.ca/DCHub/protocol.html


   $RevConnectToMe

A passive client may send this to cause a peer to send a $ConnectToMe back.

   $RevConnectToMe <nick> <remoteNick> 

   * <nick> is the sender of the message.
   * <remoteNick> is the user which should send to $ConnectToMe.

The server must send this message unmodified to <remoteNick>. If 
<remoteNick> is an active client, it must send a $ConnectToMe to <nick>. 
If not, it must ignore the message.
