After applying the lirc_dev-2.6.33.patch, the 3d party driver for the Nuvoton 677x is no longer loadable. It compiles fine, but complains about incorrect version upon modprobe:

[ 5870.433827] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61 
[ 5870.436038] lirc_wb677: disagrees about version of symbol lirc_register_driver
[ 5870.436038] lirc_wb677: Unknown symbol lirc_register_driver

After removing the above mentioned patch to lirc, both compilation and modprobe works fine:
[ 7700.230465] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61 
[ 7700.234243] lirc_wb677 w677hga: chip id high: 0xff expect:0xb4
