Hmmm. Thanks for the information. I'm not sure I want to get
into something that involves a 'subscription' or lack
of available sources.

Thanks for the commnets, I'll find a solution without 
activeX.

Thanks to all others for their input too.

No, he means this one:

app-emulation/transgaming-mozctlinstaller
 Available versions:  1.0
 Installed:   1.0
 Homepage:http://www.transgaming.com/
 Description: Mozilla ActiveX control for Cedega


... but you need Cedega installed to install this one, so you need both
anyway.

In case you're not familiar with Transgaming's Cedega, it is a
commercial variant of Wine, which requires subscription. So the ebuild
is fetch-restricted (you have to subscribe, download the *.tgz file and
save it to /usr/portage/distfiles before the application will emerge).
The mozctlinstaller is the same, in terms of fetch-restriction.

This looks promising.

app-emulation/cedega

is this the ebuild you are referring to?
