Some kernel makefile (in arch/x86/vdso/) is missing a rule to clean up. I'm reporting this only to make sure that gentoo doesn't have any influence on this (I expect not), before reporting upstream. Easy workaround: remove the remaining files "by hand", e.g. "rm -rf /usr/src/linux-3.17.2-gentoo/" after unmerging the package.

We'll watch the upstream bug for any fixes.
fixed in kernel-4.1.0 so this is relevant for kernel series 3.16, 3.17, 3.18, 3.19 and 4.0. I closed the upstream Bug as "resolved obsolete". Kind regards, mdbuerkle
