Would it be worthwhile to have an external sourceware irc channel
so that we could discuss problems in real time?

I just set up #overseers on irc.freenode.net
the channel is hidden and keyword protected
/join #overseers sourceware
The keyword is sourceware

Yes, I think that would be a good idea.
I've become an IRC convert since the New York Times explained how it
was the breeding ground of evil on the Internet:

Good idea. One easy possibility: irc.freenode.net (already used
for various projects), #sourceware.

This is exactly what I was going to do. I guess that's a "yes".

I've never used irc before (I'm a superluzer, I know); is there
anything I need to know when grabbing a client (like a type of
protocol or something)? I'm on MacOS X so specific client
recommendations are unlikely to be help for me. ;-)

The client needs to support the IRC protocol, which I think is the
oldest one.
Other chat/messaging protocols are AIM, ICQ, Yahoo!, MSN, Jabber, etc.
Although you didn't want a client recommendation, I'll mention that I
use the gaim client myself.

GCC development already has a channel on irc.oftc.net, #gcc - I can
create a #sourceware on that network if people like the idea.
