But as I understand it, the OpenWRT comes with complete kernel sources. As such, one should be able to just export them from OpenWRT and use them with Gentoo under the name wrt-sources. Am I wrong?

However, what has stopped me from trying gentoo on my little box is that it seems gentoo-embedded is geared towards devices with storage in the 100s of megabytes which the WRT does not have.
