I looked at stuffit-5.2.0.611.ebuild, and found a line ; SRC_URI="${MY_P}.tgz".
So, I went to alladdin's site and downloaded stuffit520.611linux-i386.tar.gz
manually.
I think the line begining SRC_URI is not needed like app-sci/setiathome.

------- Comment #2 From Jonathan Nall 2002-11-26 21:48:48 0000 ------- 
changed to:
SRC_URI=""

emerge stuffit (w/o downloading the binary) results in:

maine # emerge stuffit

 * Note that StuffIt requires registration within 15 days,

The last change was no good idea. See bug 22679 - and, btw, you are disabling
the md5sum check by emptying SRC_URI. Please test my new attempt.
