You mean build-aux/bootstrap?

I was hoping for something more formal: all developers commit their 
bootstrap-inner.m4sh changes to gnulib instead of to their own projects.  
Writing bootstrap to download bootstrap-inner.m4sh automatically might 
help encourage this practice.  Then I don't have to hunt through the logs 
of several other projects in order to avoid reinventing bootstrapping 
fixes.

I'll wait at least until after Eric's two-stage bootstrap is ready.  
Maybe someone will beat me to it.

Thanks for your responses.
