why don't you write us an ebuild for the patched gentoo-dev-sources and
submit it to this list once you're done.
i think here are some who'd like to use it

| That was with the .config I sent. It had "no problems" insofar it booted
| and started X. It then turned out that sound was gone, but that has
| mysteriously returned, as detailed in another thread. Unfortunately I'm
| still at square one regarding sleep (also in the "... sound's gone ..."

|
| Next I should enable FB and try your patch.
|
| Please excuse my trying your patience.
