Okay, how is "make bootstrap-lean" called these days? ;-)

In fact, bootstrap-lean is still documented in install.texi and 
makefile.texi, but it no longer seems to be present in the Makefile
machinery.  Could we get this back?

Not necessarily.  I noticed bootstrap-lean being broken/lost quite 
quickly, but since I knew that major work was going on, and there were 
more critical problems, I waited to see whether it just would be fixed
or reappear after a few days. ;-)
