genkernel --dmraid initrd seems to quit compiling due to a missing libdevmapper.h, something which I cannot find on my system. Has some dependency for the genkernel ebuild been wrong, resulting in this error?

Do you have sys-fs/device-mapper installed?
Jakub, I just installed device-mapper about an hour ago, and genkernel seems to work properly now. Even though this lets genkernel function, should device-mapper have been included in Genkernel as a dependency so that this error would have never occurred?
Good to hear that it works now.
genkernel 3.3.6 is now in CVS
