ok, thanks.  I now have

/etc/portage/package.mask
        <=sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.1
        >=devfsd-1.3.24
/etc/portage/package.unmask
        =sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.1

Now I can issue emerge -puv world without an attempt to downgrade
linux-headers, but I can find no combination of values that will prevent
portage from trying to emerge devfsd.
