Nope, it's not. /etc/make.profile/default-x86-1.4 is a symlink.
Drop the trailling / (ls -lh /etc/make.profile -- no final slash), if you 
still get a listing of files it's is a directory.
I can't remember, but doubt, if you were to rm -rf /etc/make.profile it would 
follow the symlink down and delete a small part of /usr/portage/profiles/, so 
I'd still
rm /etc/make.profile/default-x86-1.4
rm -rf /etc/make.profile
ln -s /usr/portage/profiles/default-x86-1.4 /etc/make.profile
