This is because you followed the instructions from the layman ebuild and 
added 'source /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf' to /etc/make.conf. eix 
unlike portage does not support 'source' yet. The next release of eix will, 
however, support this. Until then you need to manually put the contents 
of /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf into /etc/make.conf for eix to notice 
those overlays.
