Tonight I have compiled a new sys-kernel/gentoo-sources
version 3.17.7 (the previous version was 3.16.5).
Everything as usual:
1) copy .config from /usr/src/linux-3.16.5-gentoo to /usr/src/linux
that points to the /usr/src/linux-3.17.7-gentoo,
2) `cd /usr/src/linux`
3) `make oldconfig`,
4) `make && make modules_install`,
5) copy bzImage, .config and System.map to /boot,
and, finally,
6) `emerge @module-rebuild`.
Unfortunately, the last operation, that in my case usually
recompiles kernel modules needed for VirtualBox, failed with
the message I provide below. It is very strange for me
because I do not think that those (sometimes unconscious :)
choices I made during `make oldconfig` can influence building
VirtualBox kernel modules.
