[gentoo-dev] make.profile symlink now points nowhere (was default-x86-1.4)

Why was the x86-1.4 profile deleted? I have several machines that after
a `emerge sync` now have a non-functional profile:


# ls -ld make.profile

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Nov 14 2003 make.profile ->
.../usr/portage/profiles/default-x86-1.4


# ls -ld ../usr/portage/profiles/default-x86-1.4
ls: ../usr/portage/profiles/default-x86-1.4: No such file or directory


I tried symlinking make.profile to a newer profile and got this:

!!! 'str' object has no attribute 'insert'
!!! 'rm -Rf /usr/portage/profiles; emerge sync' may fix this. If it does
!!! not then please report this to bugs.gentoo.org and, if possible, a dev
!!! on #gentoo (irc.freenode.org)
