Whats wrong with compiling a kernel the normal way ? 

emerge gentoo-sources (or whatever flavor you prefer)
cd /usr/src/linux && zcat /proc/config.gz >.config 
make oldconfig
make menuconfig
* tweak it to your liking
make install modules modules_install
update your boot loader
umount /boot
exit chroot 
reboot

 Isn't that covered in the Install guide ?
