"They think that they can remove HAL and still have stuff like USB
hotplugging/automounting working",in Xorg 1.8, udev will replace HAL  . we
can use devicekit-disks package to mount USB stick or CD,USE polkit-gnome or
ntfs3g  to mount NTFS filesystem. so HAL is not needed.may be modify
gnome-mount ebuild ,remove HAL depedency and put it in local OVERLAY .maybe
slove the problem.
