I'm wondering if we have a list of supported platforms for maintainers vs. that of end users. I mean I wouldn't bother if 'bootstrap' fails on some platform - actually often such platforms lack other prerequisites as well -, and instead I usually use distribution tarballs for pre-release testing ... like the end users do.
