Just went through this myself. Personally, I don't like the symlink idea.
I ended up modifying /etc/init.d/lircd and changed the daemon lircd command in the start section.
This forces the lircd daemon to use /dev/lirc0.
Looks like this:
<..snip..>
start(){
if [ -f /etc/lircd.conf ]; then
echo -n $"Starting infrared remote control daemon: "
daemon lircd -d /dev/lirc0
RETVAL=$?
echo
fi
<..snip..>
This is really wierd because everything worked fine until I rebooted after I installed it.
