"Uncaught exception: Table size bigger than maximum stack" when using Chromium

[jesrui]

I get the following exception when I connect to a Kiwi server using a recent chromium version:

$ tail -f kiwi.log 
2016-12-15 08:17:40 - error: [Uncaught exception] Error: Table size bigger than maximum stack=Error: Table size bigger than maximum

I get the same exception with master (git commit 6f90124) and development (55b0bb2) branches.

Updating the requirements on the spdy module to the latest stable version seems to fix the problem for me:

Same issue here. Fixed upgrading spdy.

Can someone merge this change? I also did this.

@Fizzixnerd will look into changing this but most of the effort is going into https://github.com/kiwiirc/kiwiirc now. If not already, you should take a look at migrating to that new version.
