Could you try checking the ioctls by using strace on the lircd. You 
should see the following amongst the output:
...
open("/dev/input/event1", O_RDONLY)     = 7
ioctl(7, EVIOCGRAB, 0x1)                = 0
...

If the ioctl() call is missing then it is probably the cause of the 
duplicates. This is probably because you are missing EVIOCGRAB from 
/usr/include/linux/input.h. It should contain the following line:

#define EVIOCGRAB _IOW('E', 0x90, int) /* Grab/Release device */
