Whonder if there just is a typo somewhere... ;)

# ls /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/kernel/vmlinux*      
/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S

[Comment 2 Derk W te Bokkel 2004-02-23 10:49:45 UTC]

looks like svgalib does not build ... vmlinux.lds.s  as the normal kernel 'make' does .. see below

[Comment 3 Derk W te Bokkel 2004-02-23 11:45:39 UTC]

removing the 'clean' from  line 66 in the ebuild .. where the kernel modules are built .. then running a fresh kernel make .. to ensure vmlinux.lds.s exists
 and then emergeing svgalib eliminates the problem and svgalib builds and installs correctly..

looks like this might be a kernel 'make modules' w/o running a regular .. 'make' .. build problem ..

(all 2.6.3 kernels in my case)
