Two IRC clients with a DCC connection? mIRC can do it without needing a
server, I haven't looked if XIRC can.
Running the "talk" client and server. I think you can run that over the
internet without too many dramas, but it's been ages since I played with
talk.
Various IM systems can do direct peer-to-peer for some connections.
You can always run your own server, if you don't like external ones
(whether that be an IRC server, Jabber server, or something else).
