I have tested this with my portage overlay directory with a simple rename of
the gocr-0.40.ebuild -> gocr-0.41.ebuild and all built and installed with no
problems.

It's buggy! Please apply the pgm-patch
(message at http://jocr.sourceforge.net/ about this release)

Ok, I missed the patch or it was released after the initial release.  I have
updated my ebuild and am attaching it here as well as the patch that needs to
be applied.

GOCR 0.42 is now available from http://jocr.sourceforge.net/

The new version should have tk in IUSE, tk? ( dev-lang/tk ) in RDEPEND and
install gocr.tcl only if tk is enabled.

GOCR 0.43 is now available from http://jocr.sourceforge.net/

fixed in cvs.

The new version is definitely better on recognizing spam.
