>From /usr/share/doc/openrc-0.7.0/net.example:

##############################################################################
# INTERFACE HANDLERS
# 
# We provide two interface handlers presently: ifconfig and iproute2.
# You need one of these to do any kind of network configuration.
# For ifconfig support, emerge sys-apps/net-tools
# For iproute2 support, emerge sys-apps/iproute2

# If you don't specify an interface then we prefer iproute2 if it's installed
# To prefer ifconfig over iproute2
#modules="ifconfig"


But for some reason modules="ifconfig" doesn't seem to work for me (eth0:1
doesn't get created) but modules="!ifconfig" works ;)

Also it seems that  modules_ethX shouldn't be an array, modules_eth0="!plug
!iproute2" uses ifconfig, modules_eth0=( "!plug" "!iproute2" ) uses
iproute2 ;)



As to why you have iproute2 installed... I always install it, so I can't
say which packages might be pulling it in, but you can use equery to
find out:

tableta ~ # equery depends iproute2
 * These packages depend on iproute2:
net-misc/openvpn-2.2.0-r1 (iproute2 ? sys-apps/iproute2[-minimal])
