I am running mIRC under wine with no troubles on kubuntu hardy.
The script editor bug(which also occasionally crashes wine in my experience, as well as having the annoying line numbers) can be worked around by making sure mirc monitors changes (alt-R/options/monitor)
then just use your favourite text editor to edit and save, clicking yes to each reload.
so far this has been adequate for me to ignore the script editor dialog.
Some things obviously needs scripted differently, file paths for example and the run command should hold the .exe being run in the mirc folder, but on the whole everythign seems to be working.
I have socket connections, ftp things, dccs and the lot all working fine.
I was going to buy a seperate windows box just for running the mirc bot but no need, i can even run that instance of mirc alongside my main one in wine. It takes a little bit of setting up but hell, that's to be expected with a new OS setup.
mIRC kicks ass, even in linux.
