# ls -l /etc/make.profile
/etc/make.profile -> ../usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/amd64/2007.0
An old profile can often force a 2.4.x kernel/kernel headers.
My /etc/make.profile looks at /usr/portage/profile/linux-default/arm/2007.0
Also, when was the last time you updated portage?
Today, my Portage-Tree is up2date.
If it becomes too difficult, I would suggest trying to rebuild from
scratch.**The Gentoo Embedded Handbook [1] will give you a toolchain and
a basic build environment.**Then, I use some of the nslu2-linux docs [2]
to test the image.**When I have an image I like, the Redboot docs [3]
showed me how to burn the image to flash.**At the very least, it's a
great way to learn embedded development. Also, cross-compiling on a
development host is _a_lot_ faster than compiling natively.**;-)
At the very least, you'll end up using [2] and [3] once you get your
kernel built.
I have masked all linux-headers beside version 2.6.16 and my update looks very good.
An update from kernel and kernel-headers I will give a try in the course of time.

if you cant conform to common e-mail etiquette and proper quoting guidelines,
dont post. that includes never using top posting and only quoting relevant
portions of an e-mail rather than the whole thing.
if you want to rally against the man, go post to usenet. or a blog. the
Gentoo mailing lists follow the guidelines Jason hinted at, end of story.

You have never used mailing list archives, have you?
