Description Richard Yao (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-07-20 00:47:00 UTC 
Linux 3.5 renamed usbhid to hid-generic. If genkernel 3.4.38 builds a Linux 3.5 initramfs and hid-generic is a module, the debug shell will be broken.

I have pushed a fix for this to the genkernel GIT, but we should tag a release before Linux 3.5 is tagged to avoid problems.
