Are you talking about the host system or in your genkernel.conf ? What I did was simply to add busybox-1.8.2 to the stage3 build, then rebuild the livecd stages and generate the iso. But now I realise that it probably doesn't have anything to do with what genkernel do later on (?) as genkernel seems to use its own busybox (version 1.1.3) which is uses for its initrd images.
