I guess there are only a few cases where a package should be keyworded |
17 |
for eg x86, but not for amd64, so these few cases can be handled by |
18 |
p.masks, right? |

So, we can have a single x86 keyword, and a single x86 'parent' profile, |
21 |
and subprofiles for x86(or x86_32), amd64, and x32. |

I guess it's not that simple, but I think that's how the mips profiles work? |
