Let's stop apologizing for silence - seems that we all have things to do :)

Anyway, this is a complicated issue and the easy shots in the dark 
doesn't seem to make it. Still, if we are lucky, the problem is 
introduced after 0.9.2 - in this case a simple git bisect should reveal 
the error.

Have you read the CONTRIBUTE.md file with the info how to run a built 
source tree without installing it? If not, could you please read that 
file and setup a test environment where you can build and run lircd 
without installation?

And, with this in place, check if the  lirc-0.9.2a tag also is broken in 
this respect?

If you need with the details, just let me know!


Cheers!
