Your kernel creates all the directories in /proc.  If the irda.o module
is not loaded then the directory won't be there.  If irda is statically
compiled into the kernel then the irda directory will always be there. 
I suggest running lsmod, and making sure the irda module is mentioned.
If not insmod it.  If your 100% sure you have irda all setup in the
kernel and the module is loaded, try upgrading to a newer 2.4 series
kernel.
