No, because bootstrap absolutely has to run in $srcdir, and I don't want to get into configure style searching back up the tree looking for $srcdir. Using rev-parse would result in a relative path, which would have to be parsed by bootstrap and used as the cwd... and that might lead people to believe bootstrap supports VPATHs, which would not work at all except in a checked out tree with a working $GIT.
