[gentoo-dev] [PATCH 1/2] profiles.desc: Mark last amd64-fbsd profile exp

[Michał Górny]

The G/FBSD team is not really capable of supporting a stable profile
anymore.  More and more packages are failing due to upstream relying
on Linux userland and/or newer FreeBSD version.  At the same time, our
core packages are outdated and vulnerable, and nobody worked on them
for a long time.

Last chance to shout 'nooooo!'  I'm probably going to merge this
on Thursday or so.
