It works. Have you restarted devfsd?

The fix must go into /etc/modules.devfsd:
#IrDA ircomm devices
alias /dev/ircomm ircomm-tty
alias /dev/ircomm* /dev/ircomm
[root@cooker root]# ll /dev/ircomm*
ls: /dev/ircomm*: No such file or directory
[root@cooker root]# lsmod | grep ircomm-tty
[root@cooker root]#
[root@cooker root]# ll /dev/ircomm0
crw------- 1 root root 161, 0 Jan 1 1970 /dev/ircomm0
[root@cooker root]# lsmod | grep ircomm-tty
ircomm-tty 20320 0 (autoclean) (unused)
ircomm 7900 0 (autoclean) [ircomm-tty]
irda 92428 0 (autoclean) [ircomm-tty ircomm]
