There is no immediate need for porting to rc-core, AFAIK. OTOH I suspect 
that only some of the drivers using rc-core will only need to have their 
tx_ir method modified for a new sending/receiving ABI, so it shouldn't
stop you. If anything it might make the driver smaller.

At the moment I'm only just put initial patches together so I don't know 
when I or anyone else will have this finished.
