You changed and important config option, you changed gcc versions or module-init-tools is broken.
module-init-tools has been repelaced by kmod, you will only have one of thise.

I'm getting something similar too.

Heres what i did to get it (running a GTX-670)
I changed my make.conf VIDEO_CARD="nvidia" (from nouveau)
then i ran emerge xorg-drivers

and then... well... i get the above error a couple of times on my bootup.

I tried the things suggested in this thread so far, no luck. (module-rebuild command not found)

I had both built modules and hadn't updated my kernel (fresh install so first build) and was getting this error, rebuilding fixed however.

Thanks
