Yeah, one issue:

Why isn't vmware-workstation-6.* in the portage tree yet?

OK, I'm just kidding (there's testing to be done). Generally it works 
fine, but right now I can't get vmware's modules to load and work 
right. Dunno why. Previously the ebuilds worked well.

Mind you, there's always Murphy. So add the overlay to your system, and 
emerge away. If it doesn't work, you'll soon know about it and can 
revert back
