They do look similar, but my frontend does *not* hang. And, from doing
an strace, lircd doesn't seem to hang either -- unless you think a
particular thread (the lirc receiver thread) is hanging. . .
When it happnes, irw does *not* work either. But -- the frontend is
still playing TV recordings, etc, and the keyboard works fine.
