That appears to be correct, as there is no mention of overlay-specific 
USE settings anywhere in the layman docs.

So, it seems that one still has only the same two options that portage 
offers:

- global, in make.conf
- per package/version in package.use

and the presence of layman does not change this rule in any way. 
Actually this makes sense - all layman does for portage is provide a 
whole new bunch of ebuilds to select from. Portage is not aware of 
layman and so can't change the way it deals with USE flags because of 
layman
