And probably will lose features over time not directly related to the act of 
bootstrapping itself

Well mescc is well on its way to that

I hope not

Specifically "The bootstrap C interpreter in libguile loads the Scheme compiler 
and builds eval.go from eval.scm"

Thus by simply having a scheme compiler able to compile eval.scm, we can skip 
the libguile/*.c Assuming I interpreted that situation correctly
