For the record, I think #44926 could be considered; it packages a
non-public bootstrap dart (which is the same as this submission --
pulling binaries from the net), but then goes on to rebuild itself using
that.

I think we have other compilers in that situation packaged in Guix
(though I forget which ones).

Do we have a definitive policy on this?  If we do, I'm missing where
it's laid out clearly.  If we don't should we author one?  What would be
the big lines of what it says?

CC-ing co-maintainers.

Maxim
