Not really "mix and match". I run systemd/udev/GNOME3 in ~amd64, that's all, and I don't unmask any hard masked package. It's been working fine like that since, oh I don't know, when they removed the mask on GNOME 3? Again, Stefan has probably a valid problem, and we need more info to nail it down (hence the petition for $HOME/.xsession-errors). Just unmasking everything and hoping that will solve the issues is usually not the best practice; specially since the Gentoo developers haven't decided how to handle the merge of udev/systemd. Some want to provide a virtual/udev that systemd satisfy, and others want to keep things as they were before the merge, with the udev ebuild simply not installing the systemd parts. Given that they haven't reached an agreement, I would *highly* recommend not trying yet systemd/udev >= 186.
