Sorry, but there is no such version in portage.
Happens with previous versions as well. The particular ebuild is from bug #234126.
Please, run emerge --sync, reemerge package and attach full build log. But first, please, check: linux-mod.eclass generates modprobe.d config file and eclass was fixed some time ago. I suppose you have old eclass somewhere on your system.

(In reply to comment #3) > Please, run emerge --sync, reemerge package and attach full build log. But I cannot re-emerge as the source snapshot is gone. http://snapshots.madwifi-project.org/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-r3942-20090205.tar.gz Connecting to snapshots.madwifi-project.org|217.24.1.134|:80... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found Taking into the account the linux-mod.eclass does "newins" while leaving the previously named file in place one would still get the warning on modprobe. Further, would I have re-emerged in the meantime I would have both files (but I have only /etc/modprobe.d/ath_pci).
