Are you sure you have the latest eclass? there is already logic for the behaviour you are requesting looks to me like it's still broken:

Will be fully solved shortly, tracking in bug 283320. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 283320 *** |
if i try to build gnome-menus in a chroot, it will fail because i dont have any kernel sources. this is crazy because the only thing the ebuild does is: if use kernel_linux ; then CONFIG_CHECK="~INOTIFY" linux-info_pkg_setup fi if CONFIG_CHECK is only full of warnings, then the linux-info eclass should just continue on its way (after issuing a warning) instead of calling die
