I don't have Gentoo in front of me so I can't verify this now, but I
thought it worked to put the following in your world file:

    <sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.11

Of course if all 3.10 kernels are removed from the tree then this will
pull in a wrong kernel, but I *think* that's valid world file
syntax...
