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.

Thanks very much Bo. Changing make.conf took care of the problem nicely:
