ARM profiles are delayed to potentially fix CHOSTs together with the
profile update. Though no-one is actively doing the work to my
knowledge right now.
I guess it could cause trouble from default PIE vs no PIE from native
compiler, but I don't know enough about that field to know for sure.
If you pay attention to any future CHOST changes and handle them
yourself at the right time, you could manually choose the appropriate
17.0 arm profile as your symlink (it doesn't show up in eselect profile
due to no profiles.desc entry, but should be there in profiles/). If
changes are done, you might be caught a bit off-guard though at the
time they are done though and I'm not sure what the effects of that
would be either (probably not too bad).
