I tried "genkernel --no-module-rebuild
--kernel-config=/etc/kernels/kernel-config-6.1.19-gentoo-x86_64 all" and this
did result in a succesful compilation. Doing an emerge afterwards finished
emerging the last four remaining packages. Will see if this fixes it going
forward as well!

Thank you all for the suggestions!
