The keypool IS used for coin-generation transactions. @p{par}

And the way it is implemented, it should never throw away keys.  If I recall correctly, there is a very small chance if you lose power or bitcoin crashes a key from the keypool could be used twice.  But that has no bad effects, it is just very unusual.
