As there seems no obvious reason to get the function overloading setting to resort to the system option, I'm going to revert the patch for bug #27421 (mbstring.func_overload set in .htaccess becomes global) and add a notice to the document that using the setting in per-dir configuration is discouraged.
I personally don't like the feature because it prevents us from writing portable scripts and I know it's a fairly evil hack (or whatever you name it), however it doesn't make sense to change such a critical thing during the RC period IHMO.
Any comments?

P.S. I didn't manage to reproduce the problem and I think the bug was fixed by the patches for bug #25753 (php_value|flag / php_admin_* settings "leak" from vhosts/.htaccess files)
