[Chicken-janitors] bootstrap

idea/suggestion regarding bootstrapping and bootstrap.tar.gz :

1) get rid of bootstrap.tar.gz .  make a directory, bootstrap, with the c
   files in it, that doesnt get used by default.  also makes object separation
   easier.

2) add a post-commit hook for changes to the bootstrap trunk files that
   automatically regenerate the corresponding c files.  this ensures that
   the bootstrap files stay up to date with a minimum of effort, leading
   to fewer version-bug-related problems.

i just updated the bootstrap.tar.gz ... it still had regex-extras in it, it
was from 6 weeks ago, and it was missing the posixwin file (which, especially
now that theres a theoretically working msvc build script, is kinda vital).
