i'll copy my response from the lirc list:

i believe my i2c_proc and i2c-core are used by lmsensors. i would get 
that result from lsmod if i stopped lircd. so it sounds like its not 
its not running. the last thing i would suggest before thinking that 
something went wrong during your compile (or did you use someones 
package?) is:

# /etc/init.d/lircd stop
# rmmod lirc_i2c
# rmmod lirc_dev
# lsmod | grep lirc
(verify that there is no mention of lirc)
# modprobe lirc_i2c
# /etc/init.d/lircd start
# lsmod | grep lirc
# ps ax | grep lirc
# irw

if this fails, i would suspect that you installed an rpm over a 
previous install of lirc and pieces are still lying about causing 
this grief. if this is possibly the case, remove the package with rpm 
-e (or apt-get remove), then:

# updatedb
# locate lirc

i'd bet that you'll find pieces that should be deleted, before 
attempting to use a package or installing on your own.
