This has no impact on non-developer end-users. For "developer" end-users, this has a huge impact. You are forcing each and every developer who wants to profile their code to modify their /etc/src.conf and then 'make buildworld' solely because Max can't be bothered to add one line to his own /etc/src.conf. Developers who profile their code makes up a greater proportion of our userbase than 'Max', so sensible defaults for them are more appropriate, right? --lyndon
