FYI: bootstrap dangling symlink tweaks

[Jim Meyering]

I've just pushed a couple tweaks for the dangling symlink
deletion part of bootstrap.  I'll do the same in gnulib shortly.

The first is because I found a few persistent dangling symlinks
in lib/*.[ch] to be annoying.  The second was because when I ran
bootstrap's find command manually (without the stderr redirect),
find-4.4.0 printed this:

  find: warning: you have specified the -depth option after a non-option
  argument -name, but options are not positional (-depth affects tests
  specified before it as well as those specified after it).  Please specify
  options before other arguments.

* bootstrap [dangling symlink removal]: Move find's -depth
option to precede all others, to avoid a warning.
