Like i guessed some posts ago on the ml, eix is not able to index an
overlay that is sourced from an external make.conf. You can see that it
only indexes /usr/portage, and /usr/local/portage.
So you have following choices:

a) stop using layman and use the "SVN directly" method for the overlay
b) use esearch in favor of eix, esearch can handle that.
c) ask the eix developer why eix can't handle layman overlays and ask
for a fix ;)
