First of all it really depends on the lircrc version. As of 0.9.2+, 
there is no "standard" mceusb.lircd.conf being part of the lirc 
distribution - all lircd.conf files have been dropped from lirc and 
lives in the separate  lirc-remotes project.

OTOH,  recent updates to lirc-remotes have been changing the key symbols 
to use the namespace symbols listed by irrecord -l (which are the same 
as used by the kernel). This means that (almost) all lircd.conf files 
uses the same key symbols and that the mythtv lircrc actually could be 
generic and work with any remote, at least as a starter (things like 
repeat suppression might still need some tweaking).

Bottom line: in modern lirc there is no standard mceusb.lircd.conf, but 
there could be a standard mythtv lircrc. Upcoming 0.9.4 will contain 
such a lircrc file.

Ancient 0.9.0 is different: it contains some lircd.conf files, and those 
all uses their own set of key symbols. This means that the lircrc needs 
to fit the specific lircd.conf file used - a part of the overall lirc mess.


Cheers!
