> From kernel 4.14.X I am unable to build:

I mean, on kernel 4.9.95, I am able to build every packages, 
when I am installing / using kernel 4.14.x, and then trying to build xf86-video-drivers (?), guest-additions, and modules, the builds are always failing.
I have to revert back from 4.14.x to 4.9.95, I have then do a rebuild of the virtual box-modules (kernel modules)
Then I can resume working in my Gentoo Guests (Mac & Win 10 hosts)
And on my Gentoo Host (Win 7 guest).

Thnx,
Kr,

lets see if poly-C is ok with the stabilization, I do not see it right now.

Alo do not put random entries to the Package list field, it has to be specific.

I would like to second the request for a stabilization of something in the 5.2 series.  5.1 no longer builds for me or at least didn't last time I tried.  I've been adding ~amd64 to the 5.2 series in order to get something that works for me.
