Answers:

On this machine, route displays the following:

192.168.0.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0
eth0 
loopback        localhost       255.0.0.0       UG    0      0     
  0 lo 
default         192.168.0.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0   
    0 eth0

On the problem machine, the default is missing from the display.


No, I haven't screwed around with bringing up dhcp and eth0 manually,
since the gentoo bootscripts have always done that properly in the past.

I'm in the midst of emerging things X-related right now, so I'll check
further at the next opportunity to reboot and/or screw around with
things.
