Yes, you can skip the version number.  It should be just like the 
package.* directories but for env(ironment) variables.  It wouldn't 
suprise me if someone renamed it to package.env someday like they did 
from package.keywords to package.accept_keywords.

Unless you have a specific reason for keeping both x32 and 64 ABIs I'd 
suggest changing to ABI_X86="32 64" globally in /etc/make.conf (or 
/etc/portage/make.conf).  It's a lot easier than waiting for the next 
conflict.  Then do "emerge --new-use --deep @world" and you're done. 
There shouldn't bee too many packages that need rebuilding.
