The problem is that "make bootstrap" will not pass any variables set on the
make command line down to the recursive post-bootstrap make invocation.
I have removed this (trunk), so a "chicken-boot" is compiled from the tarred
.c files, all *.scm are touched and the last step (re-invoking make has now
to be done manually). It's just a convenience operation anyway.
