Akode from kde-sunset overlay

Recently, I've followed the howtos prevalent on the Internet for using 
the kde-sunset overlay to get continued ebuild repositories for KDE 3. 
(Please...no one tell me KDE 4 is better.  I have a test machine here 
with the latest, just so I can see new developments.  Ugh...)

Anyway, when I try to emerge the slotted kde-meta:3.5, it tells me there 
is no ebuild to satisfy media-libs/akode, and this seems to be true even 
in the overlay (the overlay doesn't provide it either).  It also happens 
whether or not the now-defunct 'akode' USE flag is enabled.  Oddly, 
there *is* an Arts plugins package for Akode in the overlay, but no 
actual Akode for it to depend on.

Since the overlay says this list is the place for reporting bugs in 
kde-sunset, I thought I'd ask here what to do.  I have access to a 
Gentoo machine that's still got 3.5 installed, so if nothing else, I can 
probably see if I can move the ebuild file and its matching source 
tarball over to the new system, but I just wanted to see if there was 
something less lame that's more recommended first.

Thanks for any help...
