Do not override the activate method, instead register an "activate" listener:

var ctrl = new OpenLayers.Control.SelectFeature(layer, {
    eventListeners: {
        "activate": function() {
            alert("control activated");
        }
    }
});

or (after the control creation):

ctrl.events.on({
    "activate": function() {
       alert("control activated");
    }
});

Cheers,
