That's not enough of the log to tell what's actually dieing. Can you either find where it says the error, or attach the whole log?
Created attachment 24003 [details] genkernel 3.0.1b4 log as requested here is the full log.
Created attachment 24004 [details, diff] viadrv_fix.patch
Looks like something bad in via_drv.h. Try the attached patch.

i reported as a genkernel bug, because using genkernel 1.8 with the same sources does not create this error. i will try the patch, but its definately a genkernel 3.0.1b4 bug, and since emerge genkernel now retrieves 3.0.1b4 it should be fixed.
can I ask WTF? this is pissing me off it's a config issue, and a kernel issue not a genkernel issue DO NOT OPEN IT AGAIN
Release time pressure. It really isn't a genkernel bug, it's my bug. That's why I assigned it to x86-kernel. I just wanted brad to be aware of it, but he's got enough stuff to worry about, so we'll take care of this.
The cmpxchg stuff is because you can't build the DRM stuff with a computer defined as 386. It needs to be >386. If possible, it would be quite useful to have the default kernel config use something >386 so I stop getting bugs on this too.
making sure I don't see it when I search for 'genkernel'
