Is this program meant to be run by root?  When I run it as a regular user, there are a bunch of "permission denied" errors, yet the program is installed in /usr/bin.  It also mistakenly claims that my Local IP is unassigned.  Maybe these are bugs that need to be looked into before going stable?  I'm not sure how this program is meant to work, so I don't feel confident about filing bug reports quite yet.

pkg_setup() {
    if ! use kde && ! use gnome; then
        ewarn
        ewarn "You didn't enable nor kde neither gnome use flags."
        ewarn "This means that no sudo GUI frontend will be used hence"
        ewarn "the ${PN} menu entry won't work for normal users."
        ewarn "Use 'sudo ${PN}' to launch the application or emerge ${PN} with"
        ewarn "USE='kde' or USE='gnome' in order to make use of a graphical"
        ewarn "sudo frontend"
        ewarn
    fi
}

If you have the kde or gnome use flags enabled the desktop entry will use kdesu or gksu

Ahh, I have USE="-gnome kde", but I am using Xfce, which explains why kdesu did not work.

Installs fine on x86. When I start it from the menu from gnome the menu item is incorrect;
gksu -c dnetstats
gksu: invalid option -- 'c'

If I start it with;
gksu dnetstats
It works fine.
