The second patch included here is compatible with the patch in bug
69799, if the other patch is applied first.  I can combine them into a
single patch if that is preferred.

It will take me some time to re-test against natty.  Is this likely to
be included in natty if I do this soon?  If so, I'll raise the priority
of this on my todo list.

I have not been in communication with the Debian developers, as I've
only tested Ubuntu packages.  I can file upstream with Debian as well,
but I'd like to take the time to test against Debian first, and adjust
patches if necessary.

Do you have any comments regarding the magic symlinking, and if it would
be safe to only do so if the socket matches /var/run/lirc/lircd\d+  and
then symlink from /dev/$(basename $REMOTE_SOCKET)
