You could run lircd in "event" mode :-

lircd --driver=dev/input --device=/dev/input/event3 -p 660 /etc/lircd.conf

Then compile in native lirc support into Myth, setup a ~/.mythtv/lircd 
mapping file and off you go....

On the DVB card, the Hauppauge Nova-T PCI card is pretty good, I got
one from PC World currently on sale at £50.
