That's a problem that would need to be solved, of course, because there
are invariably more bugs in this mode of operation.

We could incorporate this part of your changes, I think.

Actually, any random local copy probably won't cut it, it needs to be
sufficiently uptodate. In the worst case, it needs to be exactly the
version you're compiling.
What would need to happen is to more clearly separate the
src/bootstrap-emacs (which should be built with BUILDCC) from the
src/emacs (built with CC), so that you can run the src/bootstrap-emacs
to compile the lisp and leim subdirectories.
An alternative is of course to use an emulator to run src/emacs and/or
src/bootstrap-emacs.

Most/all calls to Elisp from C should protect themselves with calls to
Ffboundp or similar, indeed. Martin, could you take care of that?
