2.6.16-r12 is protected from this bug. From the ChangeLog:
*gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r12 (06 Jul 2006)
06 Jul 2006; Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>
+gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r12.ebuild:
Update to Linux 2.6.16.24 for coredump privilege escalation security fix
However, there is a new security bug in the wild, with similar
implications. Keep an eye open for new kernel releases over the next few
hours.
