is this new to 3.5.0.1 ?  or did it happen with 3.5.0.0 ?  i don't think
it was intentional, so we can always just change genkernel ...

I looked at genkernel before writing and GK_V is "3.5.0.1". Couldn't quickly figure out where the 'v' comes from.

I just analysed the issue, and it is the genkernel-9999 ebuild which modifies the GK_V into src_prepare(), by picking the git tag as version number.
Not sure which is better, change genkernel or catalyst. I guess protecting version check in catalyst will make it more reliable anyway.

Faced the problem only in v3.5.0.1. Not happen in v3.5.0.0

leno@localhost ~ $ genkernel --version

v3.5.0.1
