I dont actually think it is possible to "fix" the issue at hand. Binary app.
The only "fix" would be to have this check skipped.

The version from $SUBJECT is not in the tree anymore. 

The only remaining similar version, vmware-player-1.0.9.126128, has corresponding QA_EXECSTACK_... definitions in the ebuild, so I consider this "fixed". 

Please re-open the bug if the warnings reappear.
