overlayfs has been "temporarily disabled" for 4 years

# overlayfs features temporarily disabled pending fixes
HAVE_OVERLAYFS=""

That seems to date back to 4 years. No reference to the bug so anybody now could even try to start working on a fix (if required). git blame doesn't help either since no list of clean-up commits is maintained (in this case we see a "spelling PR"). Srsly, what is going on in this project?? Consider flagging it a not or poorly maintained so distros can start phasing it out at least 😵‍💫
