I supose, LIRC_DEVICES is a portage variable like LINGUAS or VIDEO_CARDS. I 
don't think that any other package uses this variable. vlc, mplayer, and 
others, have a lirc USE flag and once its set globally or per package and 
lirc builded it shouldn't ask for rebuild lirc again. 

So LIRC_DEVICES needs to be under /etc/make.conf

It works also as a USE flag (but I don't know why would you need this) as, for 
exemplo:

LIRC_DEVICES=serial

Is the same as:

USE=lirc_devices_serial
