I discovered Debian 12 loads the Ubuntu overlay appimages perfectly. With fuse-overlayfs installed both kinds of appimages work. With it uninstalled only the Ubuntu appimges work.
It looks like Debian now uses a kernel that supports overlay-fs.
Also if a Gimp appimage fails it still loads any installed Gimp. I think this is different to the 'Gimp loaders' I found by accident. They listed Gimp as a dependency and so were able to impose python2 and mathmap over installed Gimps that didn't have them.
