Find a backup of linux-headers somewhere[1] and untar it.

Then you can emerge again, starting with linux-headers of course

[1] there's many places you can have backups

- something you made yourself
- off a recent install cd
- someone here can mail you a tarball

but the best of all is to put "buildsyspkg" in make.conf, this makes
backups of all @system packages as they are merged and puts them in
/var/packages.

@system packages are the only things that can really nuke your ability
to merge stuff (assuming you don't also nuke python or tar - that is
catastrophic)
