Small correction, it appears to be bootstrapped source files, i.e.
compiler-generated C code.

Looking at the vala source code, we can bootstrap the current version
from 0.39.5.8, which appears to be between release cycles – 0.39.6
already requires it, whereas 0.39.5 bootstraps from 0.25.1. I'm not
sure how to get 0.25.1 to build from source, though. The code in vala-
bootstrap does not appear helpful, it in fact reads exactly like Vala-
compiled Vala.
Cheers
