In fact I had tried "overlayfs" but not "rootovl".

I forgot to use the -C option, thus /etc/fai (unconfigured) caused 
fai-chboot to use the wrong distro, and therefore add the wrong $bopt.
At the moment, I'm trying to support wheezy, jessie, and stretch - 
this is bound to cause confusion :(

Thank you for the quick response. "rootovl" will be written, in large,
friendly letters, on the title page of the fai manual...
