Hi all, 

as a consequence of the full profile tree going EAPI=5 (as announced earlier), 
1) the long-deprecated 10.0 profiles make no sense anymore and have been 
removed
2) the separate eapi-5-files directory makes no sense anymore.

I've increased the EAPI in profiles/base to 5, and added stable.mask/force 
files there. 

Now I have a request... PLEASE: 

*** If you have in the past added an entry in profiles/eapi-5-
files/package.use.stable.mask, please migrate it to 
profiles/base/package.use.stable.mask ***

i.e. add the entry in the second location and remove it afterwards in the 
first location.

I have not just copied the whole file over, since base is at a different point 
in the inheritance order of the profiles and I want to avoid subtle breakage. 
(Especially if the mask is lifted somewhere else, interacts with a file in 
another profile directory, etc bla bla... but that is something that *you* who 
made the mask entry should know.)

Objective is that profiles/eapi-5-files/package.use.stable.mask becomes 
"empty" and the whole profiles/eapi-5-files directory can afterwards be 
removed. 

Thanks a lot & cheers, 
Andreas
