Just sharing the same opinion..
i think  yr step is fair and good enuff since u're  also go thru mergemaste=
r steps..
mine also do the same step since 4.x and it works fine for me with no error=
s or anything weird..
my make.conf:

# added by use.perl 2006-08-22 09:40:06
PERL_VER=3D5.8.8
PERL_VERSION=3D5.8.8
CFLAGS=3D -O -pipe
COPTFLAGS=3D -O -pipe
NO_PROFILE=3Dtrue
CPUTYPE?=3Dpentium4

in your /etc/make.conf u just stated "NO_PROFILE=3D" with blank statements.=
. can we consider is as "false"?
