upgrade your kernel headers to 2.6.11-r3 and see if it still occurs.

my kernel:  
/usr/src/linux -> linux-2.6.14-suspend2-r1   
  
I dont intend to downgrade. or can I mix 2.6.11 headers with a 2.6.14 kernel?
Comment 5 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2005-12-01 12:32:53 UTC 
Your present headers are 2.6.11-r2 unless you've messed with them outside of
portage.

Upgrade them to 2.6.11-r3 and report back to see if the problem goes away.

I updated, and I still get the same error. Isn't it a problem to have kernel
headers at 2.6.11 and the source at 2.6.14?
Comment 7 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2005-12-02 15:16:43 UTC 
nope, not a problem at all.
so long as no application mixes the two sets of headers, everything is fine.

i'll try with a 2.6.14 source and see if I can reproruce your failure.
Comment 8 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2005-12-11 19:51:03 UTC 
gentoo-sources-2.6.14-r4 works fine for compiling vbetool.
Please try them, and additionally check that your regular headers haven't been
modified in some strange way.

I'm now strongly inclined to believe something is borked on your system.
Reopen if you can prove otherwise.
Comment 9 nefercheprure 2006-01-31 07:59:47 UTC 
I have encountered the same problem today. If the build is fixed by upgrading the os headers, the ebuild shall contain the dependency.
