Do you have a diff for what changed with X init?

The only (main) difference between the upstream keychain rpm and the
package made by me for Fedora Extras is, that the FE package ships with
the opt-in mechanism. That means 2 shell scripts which will reside in
/etc/profile.d/ as keychain.sh and keychain.csh and which allow the user
to easily invoke keychain activity by a ~/.keychainrc file. Though it is
still possible to add the keychain call within ~/.bash_profile.
