i looked into this and i really dont think its possible/worth it ... 
 
(1) you have to create an account to d/l the installer 
(2) installer is a makeself archive 
(3) installer extracts another binary that connects to some unknown server via 
some unknown protocol and d/ls the latest data files ... 
 
we could hax it and figure out where/how its getting the files and design an 
ebuild to do it ... but then we'd have to worry about them updating the protocol 
and then they might not even like the fact that we did all of that ...

Added to CVS.  Not sure if it's good enough, but it works for me.
