Description

If a package builder obtains a release the tarball from the ASF website the "bootstrap" was already run. If on the other hand they use "git archive" to obtain an arbitrary version (by hash or tag) then that tarball, does not have the files typically generated by bootstrap.

The attached patch runs bootstrap IF needed (checks for the existence of Makefile.in)
