The only dependency with nvidia-kernel seems to be virtual/modutils,
which kind of pointed to sys-apps/module-init-tools. I reemerged that
and tried the newest nvidia-kernel version. It builds, but the module
fails to load. dmesg sais (and this is, where it get really great):

NVRM: The NVIDIA GeForce2 GTS/GeForce2 Pro GPU installed in this system is
NVRM:  supported through the NVIDIA Legacy drivers. Please
NVRM:  visit http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html for more
NVRM:  information.  The 1.0-8756 NVIDIA driver will ignore
NVRM:  this GPU.  Continuing probe...
NVRM: No NVIDIA graphics adapter found!

To me this means that I need the old module with the correct patches.
