Is it really /etc/portage/profile though?  All my other `package'
files are at /etc/portage

 ls /etc/portage
  package.keywords  package.keywords~  package.use  package.use~ 

I saw the output from emerge posted here and it does say:
   /etc/portage/profile/package.provided

I just wondered if that is deprecated in favor of
/etc/portage/package.provided since all the other package adjustment
files are there and seem to work from there as expected.
