Retaining keys does require gnome-keyring, it is a dep that should be 
added for the functionality.  I will get to it as soon as possible. 
Also, you can check the list archives, a few weeks ago someone asked 
about it starting instead of net.{w*,e*,a*} - there is a setting in the 
/etc/conf.d/rc file that you can set to have it ignore (good for those 
baselayout updates since INSTALL_MASK doesn't stop symlinks from being 
created.)
