You're using hardmasked pre-release snapshot of NM and (I'm assuming) 
networkmanager-vpnc from 0.7.1 (as I didn't add networkmanager-vpnc for 0.8 to 
the portage tree).

NM 0.8 snapshots are on hold now, until we've got policykit 0.9x in tree 
again, so if you're interested in VPNC plugin, please use NM-0.7.1 for now.
