No, it means you haven't been able to bootstrap with the unconventional
configuration you are using.

>From other people's reports if you stop trying to build 64-bit only or
bootstrap with the system compiler it works, but you've said you don't want to
do that.  I hardly think that qualifies as "impossible to bootstrap".
