Where does the /usr/src/linux symlink point to?  Here's mine:

$ ls -la /usr/src/
total 20
drwxr-xr-x  5 root root 4096 Feb  4 11:40 .
drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 4096 Dec 27 09:01 ..
-rw-r--r--  1 root root    0 Dec 16  2010 .keep
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   30 Feb  4 11:40 linux -> /usr/src/linux-3.2.1-
gentoo-r2
drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 Oct 16 16:40 linux-2.6.39-gentoo-r3
drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 Dec  8 21:35 linux-3.0.6-gentoo
drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 Feb 18 13:31 linux-3.2.1-gentoo-r2
