I just tried, and no, it did not make any difference. I also tried with
and without the X v4l module, but again it didn't have any effect on my
problem.

For completeness, I also own a bttv adapter, and overlay still works
for it on my new system. So it's not like it is totally broken either -
just in combination with the zoran adapter.
