- From rudimentary testing, it *looks* like things work now.  Last night I
 was able to test after removing several entries in the keyring (for the
record, the segfaulting seemed to be related to starting
gnome-keyring-manager in KDE and trying to set/view passwords).

I still can't get things to work properly in Enlightenment, mostly due
to not being able to invoke Network Manager properly, but that's not a
big deal.  I should be able to confirm tonight.

Thanks, all (and in particular, Jarod)!
