This change mainly affects users that may connect to the same server
multiple times for multiple networks. e.g. bouncers like ZNC or proxy
users. In these cases a user will have multiple server-buffers with
the same name (i.e. irc.example.net:6697, irc.example.net:6697<2> etc.)
This patch will rename the server-buffer to whatever the network name
is, if available. Otherwise, the hostname:port will be used as normal.

I had another problem but quite similar. I'm using znc to connect to several
network and sometimes I speak to people with the same nick but on different
network so I rewrited the erc-get-buffer-create function. Network name is
appended at the end of buffer name. Sorry I have no patch for this, only the
code:

(defun erc-get-buffer-create (server port target)
  "Create a new buffer based on the arguments."
  (setq target (concat target "@" (prin1-to-string (erc-current-network))))
  (get-buffer-create (erc-generate-new-buffer-name server port target)))

It is not perfect because for server buffers I have "@nil", "@nil<1>", ... but
it works great for channels or private messages.

for znc, the best solution is this, imho:
https://github.com/sshirokov/ZNC.el

perhaps someone should ask him to include it in ERC, it's more sophisticated
than simple buffer rename.
