Lirc and devfs

[oisch]

Hi there.
I'm having Problems installing Lirc on my system.
I use the Lirc-ebuild and select the lirc_serial driver. everything compiles fine and the lirc_serial module is loaded perfectly (after what dmesg sys).
But there is no /dev/lirc.
After looking around in the lirc_serial source code I found out that devfs support is not included there.

As I don't have to good knowledge about devfs I wonder if there is a posibility to create that device without having devfs support in the module itself.
