Thanks - that was very informative.  I guess the thing that makes me
more concerned about RSA is that Shor's algorithm makes it quite
possible that it will be defeated at some point in the future, perhaps
without public disclosure.

Granted, forging Gentoo commit signatures isn't really a high-profile
target for somebody who has a secret quantum computer at their
disposal (which they'd presumably like to remain secret).
