Not only possible, but likely. What happens is this:
1. Emacs starts up
2. ERC begins initializing
3. ERC logins in to ZNC
4. ZNC starts playing black all the messages that came in since I last
exited Emacs.
5. Emacs sometimes survives this, sometimes crashes.
So it's quite possible that a "past message" ZNC is playing back contains a
partial byte sequence.
