If variables are not fine, so can't be find thigns like profile arch, isn't 
it? But that was a solution chosen for the merge of x86 and amd64...
And the same goes with quite everything defined on profile level, like the 
others.

I still think that to users it shouldn't give a damn about ELIBC, USERLAND and 
KERNEL, as they can just be mislead by thinking that they can change anything 
about that..

How we can test for and condition dependencies with special profiles others 
than this way?
