Hi all,
it's now weeks that I'm running the internet up and down in search of a
solution to this problem, without any success, including an attempt at
gentoo's bugzilla (who probably correctly denied responsibility), gentoo
forums and your "similar threads"-button.
kernel make of gentoo-sources-3.2.12 gives me the error
"vmlinux.o: No such file or directory".
here's some context from "make C=1":

this is the essence of what's wrong, the ls -Al -m elf_c86_64 ... outputs
after each LD and finally the aborted MODPOST.
I've done all possible and impossible make xxx variants, from the obvious
"make clean" to "make allnoconfig" and the like.
running "make -d" tells me a little bit more, but I don't know what to
make of it:

That's about all, at least for the first post, maybe someone has an idea.
All other compilations run flawlessly, there's no race condition ("make -j1"),
the file system is ok, no lack of inodes or the like, I've tried other
kernels past and future, and different .configs as well.
.config might have something to do with this error, but the only variation
I get is that sometimes the compilation just runs up to "mount.o".
If you need any further information I'll gladly provide it, only I thought
this post is already long enough.
kind regards, michael
