lircd stops recognizing signals

[Todd H. <tah...@ya...>]

Hi,

I have a Packard Bell serial port receiver and the
accompanying remote.  I use the standard lirc.conf
file from the lirc remotes directory.

Most of the time, lircd works fine and recognizes all
button presses.  However, occasionally, it gets into a
state where it does not recognize any button presses. 
If I wait long enough (~5 minutes), the button presses
are again recognized.  I'd say that this occurs once
every few hours, though its unpredictable (to me) when
it will occure.  I've compiled lircd in debug mode,
and the output from an unrecognized button press is
below.  

Any ideas on what might be going wrong?  I'm
completely stumped.
