Hrm, I think I don't need a note in WITHOUT_PROFILE in fact. I added
it originally because I thought PROFILE was on by default for all
archs on stable branches, which would have only WITHOUT_PROFILE in
src.conf.5. However, mips64 lacks PROFILE support so both are listed -
thus with a note in WITH_PROFILE only we'd have:

     WITHOUT_PROFILE
             Do not build profiled libraries for use with gprof(8).

             This is a default setting on mips/mips64.

     WITH_PROFILE
             Build profiled libraries for use with gprof(8).  This option is
             deprecated and is not present in FreeBSD 14.

             This is a default setting on amd64/amd64, arm/armv6, arm/armv7,
             arm64/aarch64, i386/i386, mips/mips, powerpc/powerpc,
             powerpc/powerpc64, riscv/riscv64 and riscv/riscv64sf.

which I think is sufficient.
