It has been fixed two days ago; so, Ingraham needs to sync the overlay:

https://github.com/Sabayon/mate-overlay/commit/0e4acf73e81083d87d43e2a0b0be2b959f1e6a78

A news item was put out that it was being migrated to the Portage tree:

And they are now planning to retire the overlay to make people switch:
