The difference can be seen in the ebuild source U.R.I.s:
gentoo-kernel-bin: https://dev.gentoo.org/~mgorny/binpkg/amd64/kernel/ \
sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel/${MY_P}.xpak
gentoo-kernel: https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/ ... +
patches from https://dev.gentoo.org/~mpagano/dist/genpatches
The wording is horrible, but as the suffix ("-bin") would suggest, the former is
a binary .xpak package, whereas the latter is base kernel sources with
additional Gentoo developers' patches.
