network gone after iptables/shorewall emerge on gentoo

is it possible that the /etc/init.d/net was modified during emerging of these packages? Anyway, I had to rewrite the netmask 255.255.255.0 part of

config_eth0=( "192.168.0.7 netmask 255.255.255.0" )
routes_eth0=( "default via 192.168.0.1" )

to have the static IP working. Otherwise, I had a message saying RTNETLINK answers: network not reachable.
