Looks like you're right. But I'm a little surprise since this is 
something the kernel handles. I don't see how only certain things can 
work with a USB/RS232 adapeter and others like lirc can't. I've never 
used lirc, but if you're able to change the serial port from ttyS0 to 
ttyUSB0, I don't understand how it wouldn't work.
