If you're not sure your kernel is fine, use a GENERIC kernel, or at the least build all the modules.
NOTES does not affect anything, it's another kernel config you can choose with KERNCONF=

I used to have another problem with -CURRENT: after particular update I couldn't build any software at all only packages could be installed. I returned to previous snapshot and it worked fine. I tried several times with the same result. Some time passed and problem was gone: I guess developers eliminated it finally.

That is the nature of CURRENT, it is the latest version with the latest bugs and problems associated.
CURRENT is intended mainly for developers, not the general public. For us mortals RELEASE or STABLE is recommended.
