The problem is, you NEED the linux26-headers. so emerge that (after
unmerging linux-headers if necessary).
Why? Something is asking for *any* linux-headers, which could be
satisfied by either of those, so linux(24)-headers is chosen by default,
then glibc asks for linux26-headers (due to the nptl use flag) which is
blocked by linux-headers.
Once linux26-headers gets installed, it will satisfy any package that
requests *any* version of headers, as well as those specifically needing
2.6 (which is required by nptl).
Also, technicality here, but ~x86 is a keyword, not a use flag. It can
be set per-package in /etc/portage/package.keywords or globally by
setting ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" in your /etc/make.conf. Trying to do
USE="~x86" is meaningless.
