We might do that, but I'd first need to understand better your reasons
for using "make bootstrap" when building from a tarball.  The Emacs
release and pretest tarballs are intentionally prepared to make the
build as fast as possible, which is why all the platform-independent
files produced by bootstrapping (notably, the configure script, all
the *.elc files, and all the Info manuals) are included in the
tarball.  So why did you decide to bootstrap?
