I finally understood why Lirc didn't work with mplayer: the lirc modules 
weren't loaded properly (lirc-kernel package wasn't installed - for some 
reason, although the rest of the lirc packages were installed).

So mplayer still doesn't output any lirc-related message in the console 
- I don't know why - but it registers ok as a Lirc client 
(/var/log/messages shows mplayer registering as such) and if lirc 
modules are loaded, everything works fine. QED.

Anyway, thanks for the kind help, and sorry for the noise for a somewhat 
off-topic problem.
