If you want to allow overrides in an htaccess, you'll need at least,
<Directory "/var/www/whatever">
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
AllowOverride FileInfo Options
</Directory>
in the main config or your vhost config.
The Gentoo config modularizes by default, but you don't have to use it
if you don't want to. Almost everything under /etc/apache2/modules.d is
disabled by default unless you enable it in /etc/conf.d/apache2.
Named virtual hosts are also disabled by default if I remember
correctly, so you should be able to just stick stuff in httpd.conf or
00_default_settings.conf and have it take effect if you don't want to do
anything fancy.
Almost everything "different" about the Gentoo config comes from these
two lines at the bottom of httpd.conf:
Include /etc/apache2/modules.d/*.conf
Include /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/*.conf
which do exactly what you'd expect.
