I just made this after discovering a source repo with a bootstrap
directory. Naturally it results in just about everything being rebuilt,
so it would a long time to fully test it, and I'm no experienced schemer
so I can't be sure this is the right way to add in this change. Feel
free to rewrite it a better way.
