I found bug 271482 that mentions the problem, but we now need a dedicated resolution: can not re-open. moon-gen-3 ~ # emerge -v1 lirc These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Apparently the previous solution isn't working for you, since you're using the ebuild that includes bug 271482 fix -- so assigning to maintainers to take another look.
Does your problem go away when you install dev-embedded/libftdi?
Fixed in 0.8.6 by upstream, and fixed 0.8.5 by sping and me.

And as long as 0.8.6 is not stable, whatever upstream could have done ... The question is: why have I be the only one having this bug in 3 months ?
I'm experiencing this as well: make[3]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/app-misc/lirc-0.8.5/work/lirc-0.8.5/daemons' i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I.. -O3 -march=k8 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -msse -msse2 -msse3 -m3dnow -mmmx -MT hw-types.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/hw-types.Tpo -c -o hw-types.o hw-types.c mv -f .deps/hw-types.Tpo .deps/hw-types.Po i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I.. -O3 -march=k8 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -msse -msse2 -msse3 -m3dnow -mmmx -MT ir_remote.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/ir_remote.Tpo -c -o ir_remote.o ir_remote.c mv -f .deps/ir_remote.Tpo .deps/ir_remote.Po i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I.. -O3 -march=k8 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -msse -msse2 -msse3 -m3dnow -mmmx -MT release.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/release.Tpo -c -o release.o release.c mv -f .deps/release.Tpo .deps/release.Po i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I.. -O3 -march=k8 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -msse -msse2 -msse3 -m3dnow -mmmx -MT hw_ftdi.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/hw_ftdi.Tpo -c -o hw_ftdi.o hw_ftdi.c hw_ftdi.c:54:18: error: ftdi.h: No such file or directory So I'd say you're not the only one.
If you have ftdi, usbirboy, userspace or all in your LIRC_DEVICES the ebuild pulls in dev-embedded/libftdi. So I don't understand where your problem is originated.
David, are you still having this problem ? If yes, please don't fix it manually; my box is fixed and i can't repro; but if you can repro, we can try tracking the problem: emerge -vp lirc and let us see if you have LIRC flags, and if the ebuilds really brings dev-embedded/libftdi in for you. if dev-embedded/libftdi does not come in, check to see if it is in already or not: emerge -vp dev-embedded/libftdi equery d dev-embedded/libftdi If it is not in yet, we need to find why. What's your portage version ? How many changes did you do in /etc/portage ?
David: of course we need your emerge --info
