I recompiled lirc from ABS with the appropriately modified _kernelver variable to no avail. It's almost like it's compiled for another kernel... but it isn't. I'm really stumped on where to go on this one.

[root@mythfe01 /]# modprobe lirc_serial
WARNING: Error inserting lirc_dev (/lib/modules/2.6.17-ARCH/kernel/drivers/misc/lirc_dev.ko): Invalid module format

check your dmesg output, guess you compiled lirc with a different compiler than kernel26 2.6.17 was compiled with.

Argh. I didn't even think to check that. I just assumed kernels would be compiled with the stable gcc. Yes, that fixed it. Sorry for the alarm!
