I'm still using 2.6.17-r8 on many systems and I haven't had any problems
compiling kernels.
Don't know a thing about VXPocket.
I'd like to recommend common steps in upgrading kernels.
Unpack the kernel to the usual /usr/src location.
Copy the .config file from your old /usr/src/linux-version/.config to the
/usr/src/linux-newversion/ directory.
Run make oldconfig and answer the new questions.
Run make menuconfig to verify everything is OK.
Run make in /usr/src/linux
Run make modules_install in /usr/src/linux
Run cp /usr/src/linux/arch/somearch/bzImage /boot/whatever
update, if necessary, /boot/grub/grub.conf to reflect kernel name changes
reboot then recompile ALL module systems outside of the kernel (like
proprietary video drivers, ATI/NVIDIA, lm-sensors, vmware, madwifi, etc.)
and consider emerge world -e, then reboot again to make sure everything is
updated.
Have a wonderful day.
