I don't think this is possible at all. You probably can have something like eMule compiled using Winelib or other open-source windows app always compiled using winelib and winemaker, but you can't install windows application system-wide and use them with wine.
There's a great difference between the way windows nt-based systems "share" the applications between users, and how the users are managed from wine's point of view. There's a reason why Wine's default c drive directory is inside home instead of something system-wide. Then... no I don't think this is something doable.. and anyway Mike is right, this is absolutely not for main portage tree... you are welcome to create an unofficial overlay with them if you find a clean way to do this :) -- Diego "Flameeyes" Pettenò Gentoo Developer (Gentoo/FreeBSD, Video, Gentoo/AMD64) http://dev.gentoo.org/~flameeyes/
