OK; now I can put this whole thing behind me. You can read the bug again: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53905 but the short answer is that you cannot let both systemd and consolekit to manage sessions. The problem (in my case) was that I was using accountsservice 0.6.22, which depends on consolekit. I upgraded to accountsservice 0.6.24 (which can depend on systemd), I removed all consolekit USE-flags (except for bluez: bluez uses consolekit to pull either consolekit or systemd; I reported a bug[1]), and after an emerge -uDNv world, I removed consolekit (I didn't had any other package depending on it). Now everything works as it should, in both my overlay and in the vanilla Gentoo tree. Be aware: it works *with systemd*; maybe it works without it, but I don't know (nor care). All the GNOME session management is moving to systemd, and I think it's a great idea. Support for consolekit (which is no longer maintained) is still there, but I don't know for how long. If you want to keep using (the unmaintained) consolekit, be sure to set "-systemd" in your USE flags. Do not mix systemd and consolekit, or this bug will hit you. Regards.
