Now I have done all of the hoop jumping, 2 dozen kernel recompiles
Build your kernel again (per the gentoo instructions) and save your old /boot/bzImage and copy the new one from /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage to /boot/bzImage and reboot.
I recognize here a possible problem that had me baffled for a couple of days while I was trying to compile in USB mouse support. I copied bzImage to /boot, but had /boot not mounted by default, which if I recall was the suggested way to do things in the documentation install guide. So, Rick, be sure you actually have your boot partition mounted; if you keep dumping a perfectly good re-compiled kernel in the mount point without having the right partition mounted, well, yeah. :-)
