As presented, this is a kernel issue - the basic decoding and 
ir-keytable is part of the kernel package. Getting help on these usually 
best done on the distribution help channels (gentoo in your case, but it 
might make sense to try one of the bigger distros if you don't get any 
answer)

It might be that adding new keys to the remote is complicated using the 
kernel stuff - to be honest, I'm not quite sure. In this case, one 
option is to use the LIRC decoding instead of the kernel tools. If this 
is what you want, you might want to look into [1]. To be able to use 
keys not supported by the kernel you need to use the 'default' driver.


Cheers!
