does not matter. If you emerge sync && emerge -U world you will have a
gentoo 2004 system :D

not silently. It happens if you don't have matroska in USE flags

try this
USE="* +matroska" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~c86" emerge mplayer

(or better add matroska to USE flags in make.conf)

it should emerge mplayer-1.0_pre3-r1

BTW: anyone here can make an ebuild for mplayer-cvs?
