If you don't use the dependency mechanism, then the rc scripts are executed 
based on alphabetical order. It really sucks too. Personally, I think this 
porion of gentoo should be overhauled and re-written to work something along 
the lines of good old fashioned system V startup scripts as implemented in 
Open Linux...

Cheers.
