I took a quick look at the script here:

  
https://github.com/RTEMS/rtems-source-builder/blob/master/source-builder/sb/bootstrap.py

Unfortunately, I haven't learnt Python yet. However, it looks like it's calling 
'autoreconf', so it does not use the bundled 'bootstrap' script. Is that right? 
Should a tool that tests all build configurations not rely on the standard 
scripts that every user should run?

By the way, how does it run faster than 'bootstrap', which also seems to call 
'autoreconf'? Or do you mean all different configurations are built in 
parallel? I was looking at speeding up just the configuration I am using at the 
moment. If that method is faster, maybe it could replace the standard 
'bootstrap' script.

Thanks,
