I guess you mean is it safe to remove older symlinks?  Yes.  I would not 
remove the profile files themselves under 
usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/.

The symlink should be something like:

# ls -la /etc/make.profile 
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 54 Sep  2  
2006 /etc/make.profile -> /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop

if you are running a desktop, or server, if you are running a server on that 
machine.

HTH.
