  Thanks.  It looks like you were right about the file being corrupt.  I
ran "zcat /proc/config.gz > .config" and then "make oldconfig".  Things
went smoothly.  Unlike the previous run, oldconfig did *NOT* generate
any error/warning messages.  There were only a few items brought up by
oldconfig, mostly new device drivers.  The build and reboot went
smoothly, and now I'm...

[d531][waltdnes][~] uname -sr
Linux 2.6.31-gentoo-r10

  I'll follow my usual routine and wait a week or 2.  Unless I run into
problems, I'll promote 2.6.31-r10 to "production" then.
