foiltex was added after adding of bootstrap. Foiltex needed by a package as I remember.
Maybe the bootstrap option isn't important. When I began texlive.spec on PLD was only tetex. When build texlive it needs some installed files (BuildRequires :)). First "official" build of texlive used files from tetex. We've install texlive (and remove tetex) and rebuild (without bootstrap). So the rel2 used files from texlive (not tetex). I think it's unnecessary.
