Hi, I just compiled and tested Antti Palosaari branch and can confirm the remote works for my RTL2832U. I have updated the wiki[1] entry with the steps necessary to configure the remote control. Please confirm if these fixes your problem.
Thanks, but I can't confirm if this fixes my problem, because the modules I obtain building Antti's branch are not compatible with my existing kernel, so I can't test them (modprobe --force fails, and using a brand new kernel would be too much work on Tinycore at the moment). On the other hand, I tried the sources fromgit://linuxtv.org/media_build.git, first with manual patches and then (when the latter got accepted) without them. But the ir remote does not work.
I think Antti's repo and patching linuxtv repo should lead to the same results, right?

I think the most easiest way could be compile & install whole Kernel from my tree. It is 3.10-rc4 + some fixes.
media_build.git has also option to fetch developer git tree from linuxtv.org. Something like ./build --git git://linuxtv.org/anttip/media_tree.git rtl28xxu . That approach seem to be not documented on wiki:

Ok, but I first tried the easier alternative you advised below.

Thanks for the suggestion. It is documented only in ./build --help, it seems.
I tried this latter way, it built succesfully, but the modules won't work: modprobe --force dvb_usb_rtl28xxu gives
err kernel: dvb_core: exports duplicate symbol dvb_ca_en50221_camchange_irq (owned by kernel)
