Sorry for my late response, but I was quite busy with "subversioning the kernel",
i. e. I'm now able to (semi-)automatically update my subversion repository
using (downloaded) patches from kernel.org (mirrors).

I have attached the same patch I've send before, though I do not understand
why it was mangled. (I've tested this by sendind myself an email
containing the patch...)

For the patch was build on 2.6.10 with gentoo-patches already applied,
I have verified that my patch works on 2.6.11-rc3 from kernel.org, too.
It works! (The patching, i. e. I've not built a 2.6.11-rc3-kernel yet)

Hope that I'm able to remove the "partial" soon.

Cheers,
Axel
