You are running an earlier version of alsa in Gentoo, you might try 
1.0.17rc3
or just 1.0.16 which is final (http://www.alsa-project.org).

There have been other posters on this list where hda_intel failed on 
2.6.25 and
worked on 2.6.24.

Both are detecting and loading snd_hda_intel.  Perhaps an options line 
might fix on Gentoo?
Add them in the /etc/modprobe.d/sound file as lines like:
options snd_hda_intel model=mbp3  or 3stack or 6stack or ...

See if they are detecting the same card by running  alsa-info.sh with 
--no-upload option under
each OS and compare the output looking for differences.  The script is 
found at http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh
