We've probably done the same searches and came up with the same results:
overlayiigs likely was an Apple-internal MPW tool. There is no mention of it
anywhere in the Apple II Usenet archives here at Mac GUI, nor any mention of
it on the Web according to Google. Nor did I find any remark about it in any
MPW documentation.

Probably the best way to proceed is to first figure out what exactly it did
by examining the make files and examining how it is used. I think it was
used to overlay parts of files to make a composite file, but I could be
wrong.
