I was talking about Wixfeat4190 github pull request #29 which was merged
June 12th. That's after the release of 3.8.

My understanding was that with this change, the standard bootstrapper
would check a feed for updates, and ask if it should download. It could
be called periodically or on request from the application.

I placed an XML file with the same format as described in 
https://wixextba.codeplex.com/discussions/435763
and placed the URL in WiX/Bundle/Update/Location.
But I verified with wireshark, that my Bootstrapper doesn't fetch it.

So, am I mistaken that the 3.9 Bootstrapper should fetch it without me
having to provide a custom dll?
What led me to believe it was no longer necessary was this conversation:
