Ok, thanks for the confirmation.

[dzu at pollux u-boot-testing (master)]$ git grep "environment overflow"
common/cmd_nvedit.c:            printf ("## Error: environment overflow, \"%s\" deleted\n", name);
tools/env/fw_env.c:                     "Error: environment overflow, \"%s\" deleted\n",

Only you can answer what you have defined for your configuration.
