these arent arch or profile specific issues ... these are maintainers

if you want to control the default for the profile you can still do it ... 
nothing has changed

per-package IUSE defaults comes after everything else ... so if you want to 
change the default in the profile, nothing is stopping you from doing exactly 
that
