If you look at the top of the bootstrap script, you'll see a comment as to why the bootstrap script is needed: # bootstrap script to build all the *.in files and configure script. When avr-libc is released, the configure script is pre-built and distributed in the release. The bootstrap script is required for avr-libc *developers*, who may change the *.in, or *.ac files and then rebuild the configure script.
