Oh I see. I was operating under the assumption, that the overlay handler was custom code.

This helps. A lot. Thank you. For some reason, IDA seems to have done this all by itself for the exe I am investigating (Sid Meier's RRT for the curious). Currently I am on a different machine, but I will investigate this later. Do you by chance know if this is dependent on how overlays...
