Actually (and this is great) we now use bootstrap-tools first and only then saved binaries. We now do not use installed binaries during installworld at all. Question. What if we just expand the list of bootstrap-tools with tools needed for installworld (the ones we now save)? The point here is that (potentially) every tool that we use during installworld could have bootstrapping problems. Particularly, I don't see why we need to save /usr/bin/install-info. It is already built and will be preffered as bootstrap-tools's tool. (Sorry, Marcel, I did not have enough time to review your patch before you committed it).
