I am not used to gentoo.  Can you throw them into /etc/modules (or
similar)?  Make sure you put ahci before md.
Also, you might need to generate a mdadm.conf ...
        $ echo 'DEVICE partitions' > mdadm.conf
        $ mdadm  --examine  --scan --config=mdadm.conf >> ./mdadm.conf 
And on debian this would start all those in the config file:
        $ /etc/init.d/mdadm-raid start
Good luck,
-Bart
