I read a while back that changing from certain profiles to certain
other profiles is impossible without a complete reinstall.  I'd like
to change to hardened/amd64/multilib but also have the option to
switch to default/linux/amd64/2008.0/desktop if I have problems with a
hardened profile like I do on my laptop.  Can I do all that?
