Yeah, I knew that doing this would cause what I was talking about, but I
don't recall ever having using a specific version in a kernel emerge
command. I guess it's possible I just don't remember doing it, but it
happens often enough that I don't think this is why.
I'll try to pay attention to the contents of world and see if I can
pinpoint an action that is doing this. Thanks!
