It looks like you are using a very old profile. Make

You are right and I am using an old profile:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 48 Aug 30 2005 make.profile ->
../usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2005.0
I read the doc you suggested. Either I completely missed/misunderstood
the notice that was sent warning me to upgrade to a newer profile, or
the warning may not have been sent because according to the
gentoo-upgrading doc a new file should have been added to the 2005.0
directory named "deprecated" ; the contents of which contain the name of
the new profile to be used.
There is a "deprecated" file in /usr/portage/profiles/obsolete/x86 that
says 2004.3 is the upgraded profile.
I have run emerge -u portage and it says everything is fine.
The gentoo-upgrading doc does not indicate how to upgrade to the 2006.0
profile. Is merely changing the symlink adequate as was done for 2005.0
--> 2005.1?
