It did on my machine when I started it up.  And all my 1.5.x machines
have behaved that way as well.  If you look at the code, (either once
you've load /etc/rc.d on you machine, or in the repository) you will
see a pre-command to start that checks if a key file exists, and calls
a keygen routine if it doesn't.
