I am getting a "masked by: profile" error when I emerge world.  Any idea what 
this means and whether/how to override it?  Here is what emerge throws back 
at me:

zebedee root # emerge -pvu world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies -
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6" have been 
masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.8.1-r2 (masked by: profile)
- sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.11 (masked by: profile, -* keyword)
- sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.8.1-r4 (masked by: profile, ~x86 keyword)

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
section 2.2 "Software Availability" in the Gentoo Handbook.
!!!    (dependency required by "sys-apps/hal-0.4.7-r2" [ebuild])


!!! Problem with ebuild gnome-extra/libgtkhtml-3.2.5
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.

!!! Depgraph creation failed.



Thanks!
Robert
