I had a similar issue with the .tmp-unverified-download-quarantine continually appearing, deleting it made no difference. In the end I deleted the whole portage tree and resynced, then the problem disappeared. This may or may not have a bearing on your profile issue, but it's worth fixing first. -- Neil Bothwick I'm not a complete idiot - several parts are missing.
