You'll have to put them back in. No getting around that, but bear in mind that a lot of defaults are (and should still be) present in your /etc/make.profile/make.defaults. You don't need to specify those unless you want to disable any of them e.g.:

USE="-oss"

  emerge gentoolkit
  cd /var/cache/edb
  mv world world.orig
  qpkg -I -nc > world
  emerge world
  mv world.orig world
