I removed consolekit already and I right now recompile all the packages depending on it. > I have USE="-consolekit" where necessary (basically gdm, pambase and > bluez), and USE="systemd" everywhere else.

No big deal, but gdm is nicer and it just should be possible to use it correctly with systemd.

I don't think it won't work, I just wonder how to do it in the right and most efficient way. I will think about that later/tomorrow maybe, already late here ... Best regards, Stefan
