I think I've recovered my source tree (fortunately I made a complete backup of the /usr/src directory before I started!
Here is the result of the emerge: Athlon_gentoo / # !492 emerge nvidia-kernel 2>&1 |tee nvkernelstuffed >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-3123.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/nvidia-kernel-1.0.3123-r2/work * Applying page_alloc.c patch...
