Thats also an improvement on the other. Its a very consistant 1 to 1.5 point 
red cast (down from over two points, as I recall), up to where the paper white 
comes in. I prefer a very consistant 0 to 0.5 point red cast, to be on the 
safe (nongreen) side of neutral. So at this point, I'd move the red/green slider 
a bit away from red.

In the sliders on the Profile Settings screen. They effect the profile in 
total, even when it is built from two targets at once.

You seem to be under a misconception here. All profiles are built anew from 
the selected XML measurement set(s). So you simply select the same color and 
extended grays measurement sets again, in the lower part of that screen, then 
use the sliders on the next screen to make any adjustments you want. Then build 
the new profile version.
