Up to now we have been taking LIRC from official release tarballs.  A
quick look at the LIRC web-site seems to tell me that 0.8.6 is still the
current version of LIRC.  I think I am inclined to continue to stick
with those offical releases.

Mario, you are the primary driver behind LIRC being included what is
your feeling?
