Since the IR receiver is only wired to the IR receiver input on the A64 the only thing that could be implemented I guess is waking up from sleepmodes (standby) via an interrupt, but not from a hard power-off since for that you would have to wake up the PMIC somehow from a demodulated and decoded IR signal.... same as the standby mode on your TV for example.
