you neglected to post `emerge info` like the bug report page says to

also, your error log is useless ... please run `emerge svgalib >& log` and post the log file

it also looks like your /usr/src/linux is not configured properly, check that

fixed the first error but the second error is yours to fix

your /usr/src/linux tree is not setup

/usr/src/linux tree attached.  What is needed here?

i'm not going to look at it

you need to build your kernel in it first

if the modscripts script isnt found it's because you havent built a kernel in it
