[Portland] xdg-utils 1.0.2 available

[nf2]

for gnome-keyring i found this:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Use_gnome-keyring_to_store_SSH_passphrases

for kwallet maybe this helps to explain the interface...
http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=50971

because keyring/kwallet don't come with command-line tools, perhaps a 
helper binary could be added to xdg-utils, which does the library calls 
with dlopen/dlsym...

the helper binary could be launched from the xdg-passwd-store script...

but i don't know how dlopen/dlsym works with C++
