This built a file
kernel-module-lirc-2.6.12-1.1398_FC4-0.7.1-3.i686.rpm, which includes
a working streamzap module (it loaded right up when I plugged in my IR
receiver), but the existing lircd doesn't recognized "streamzap" as a
driver.

I ran rpmbuild --rebuild --target i686 lirc*.src.rpm and build a new
lirc rpm, in the hopes that that lirc would know about streamzap, but
it didn't work.

I'm open to any other ideas.  In any case, thanks for the help!
