OVERLAYS support is a new feature in the ports system and adding support for it in this version of portmaster is not planned.
You are free to submit patches, but due to the structure of portmaster it will probably need a lot of changes in different parts of the script, and I just do not have the spare time to implement and test support for OVERLAYS.
I'm working on a portmaster rewrite and that will provide OVERLAYS support, but it is still at least a few months away from a first beta release.

I have checked you your forked and you haven't touched it quite for a while. Should I give it a try? I'd be nice if this could appear as a devel port in the FreeBSD ports tree for testing. I'd be happy to give you feedback.
@stesser Do you plan to push you code upstream?
Gentle ping...

trying to install via portmaster:
It seems like portmaster completely ignores ports overlays.
