On kernel 2.6.3, w/ sync'd portage tree, "emerge alsa-driver-1.0.2c" fails.

The following lines are the last few lines of the emerge command:

make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/alsa-driver-1.0.2c/work/alsa-driver-1.0.2c/usb'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/alsa-driver-1.0.2c/work/alsa-driver-1.0.2c'
make -C /usr/src/linux SUBDIRS=/var/tmp/portage/alsa-driver-1.0.2c/work/alsa-driver-1.0.2c/kbuild modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.3-gentoo-r2'
Makefile:406: /usr/src/linux-2.6.3-gentoo-r2/arch/amd64/Makefile: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/src/linux-2.6.3-gentoo-r2/arch/amd64/Makefile'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.3-gentoo-r2'
make: *** [compile] Error 2

!!! ERROR: media-sound/alsa-driver-1.0.2c failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 66, Exitcode 2
!!! Parallel Make Failed

Of course, .../arch/amd64/Makefile doesn't exist!. It's arch/x86_64!

By the way, /usr/src/linux is what's used and it's symbolically linked as suggested above.

A couple of nights back, I was certain I'd found the root of the confusion. So I left it until morning. A power hit forced a reboot and now I cannot recall what I'd found.

What's the "proper" way to fix this for this and any other ebuild that fails for the same reason?

ahhmm....why do you need alsa-driver? alsa is supposed to be in the kernel, no needs ro emerge alsa-driver, just alsa-utils...

Aren't the alsa-libs also needed?

Yes... alsa-libs are needed and you can emerge alsa-utils too to get alsamixer, etc... but DON'T emerge alsa-driver as it's already integrated in the kernel... take a look at the section DeviceDrivers->Sound->ALSA when configuring the kernel.
