Hi, IMO when performing "make" after make clean and make menuconfig (assuming you want to change something in kernel) builds kernel image and modules as well. After that I run rm -rf /lib/modules/<kernel dir> and make && make modules_install. Then there shouldn't be any problem. (also [emerge -av $(qdepends -CNQ virtual/linux-sources)] would be nice).
