They would need to redigest portage/sandbox with their version of
portage, as you said.  They would need to create a symlink
from /etc/make.profile to /usr/portage/profiles/obsolete/$arch, then
they would need to emerge --oneshot sandbox portage.  After that, they
can upgrade to a supported profile.
