Empirical evidence suggests that src.conf(5) manpage is
incorrect.  Adding WITH_PROFILE to /etc/src.conf, 

cd msun
cd make clean && make
ls /usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/lib/msun/libm*
/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/lib/msun/libm.a
/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/lib/msun/libm.so@
/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/lib/msun/libm.so.5*
/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/lib/msun/libm_p.a

so libm_p.a is built.  I haven't tried to install it.

    Clarify notice for profiled libraries in FreeBSD 14

Well, that certainly clarifies the situation.

Could someone please fix src.conf(5)?
