I use the pro-audio overlay already. That's not the point, which I
guess I made somewhat obliquely.

The question is whether rt-sources, as built from portage using the
overlay, is based on the vanilla kernel or based on gentoo-sources. I
believe it's built on the vanilla kernel or else we'd be picking which
version of the Gentoo kernel we want to add the patch set to. That's
not what the pro-audio overlay does. It's just patching
vanilla-sources. (If I'm wrong about this let me know but that's the
way it started.)
