Actually this can be modified. You will need to setup modprobe options similar to http://osdir.com/ml/hardware.lirc/2005-11/msg00044.html
This can be achieved by creating a file /etc/modprobe.d/lirc. In it, add a line like this:
options lirc_serial io=0x2f8 irq=3
rmmod and modprobe lirc_serial again, and you will have it using a different port.
