in the releng env
(http://projects.archlinux.org/users/dieter/releng.git/tree/) it seems the

Frankly I don't even know/remember how this ever worked, I can't find a 
reference to these files anywhere.
How does one control which pacman.conf archiso must use during building of the 
arch environment it puts on the isos?

I do not know about how these scripts works, the only thing that I can
say is about archiso:
build.sh (wrapper to mkarchiso) does not have a parameter to set a
pacman.conf, so mkarchiso by default will use /etc/pacman.conf.
has this always been like this?
Yes, never used neither in the age of Makefile instead of build.sh. At some point we used a local copy of pacman.conf in overlay (unmodified from pacman package when mkarchroot does not support NOCOPY)

Can you point me where is supposed to be used these files in
releng-scripts? I can not found any references in the tree.

exactly, that's what I said.  I don't know where these files are ever used. 
They should be used when building the iso's.

Weird. sure?

But think that these files are never used, because:

They are out-of-date (compared to newer pacman.conf) -> There are no "SigLevel" -> Default "SigLevel" is used, that is "Optional TrustedOnly" by pacman-4 -> without manual interaction pacman will not work. -> no ISOs.

But we have ISOs all times :) Or I am missing something?
