Hello,

Yes, but better request a binnmu after the upload, to be sure.

AIUI it is usually preferred to upload as few manually-built packages as
possible, and thus you'd upload stage1 foo, let bar be built, and
request a binmu for stage2 foo.

If the profile-specific build really is needed, yes. In practice, once
the loop is broken it's not needed since you already have a stage1 bar
to build with and so you can just let builds happen. It's then only for
new archs that a bootstrap is needed (and keeping the profile available
for doing it is really useful for porters to just do it themselves).
