Some observations (originally from IRC discussion, mgorny has asked me
to post them here for reference):

- As far as we know, these variables are Portage specific, as well as
  FEATURES="collision-protect".
- Variables are _not_ incremental, so assigning them in a profile will
  override make.globals.
- Setting them in make.conf will override both profiles and
  make.globals.

So for users who assign the variables in make.conf the assignment in
profiles will have no effect. But I think one can assume that these
are advanced users who can handle such kind of situations.
