There is not an overlay for make.conf, nor will there ever be due to
catalyst's design.  Remember that this is a release-building tool, which
means we would *never* use software that isn't marked stable.

You can use your envscript to export ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" but that
will *not* make it into any stages/LiveCD's make.conf file.  Of course,
if you're not using the Installer, then it doesn't matter much on a
LiveCD, but it could have some pretty drastic consequences on stages.

The simple answer is... don't.

If you need a ~arch package, mark it stable in your snapshot prior to
starting your build.
