I have found that with the latest lirc_gpio.c file from lirc CVS, there 
is a fix for the duplicate keys... it actually isn't sending dupes, but 
lirc wasn't detecting them correctly. I took that file and compiled it 
in with an older lirc version I was using (don't ask... it was easier 
:-) and then installed the lircd.conf file that I also got from CVS 
(shows remote RC-0010 I think)... then all the keys work. This lets you 
have play, record, etc. labeled "correctly".
