Hi Ludo'!
Replying to your initial review to notice the things that I initially
postponed and now have been done and the things that are still todo.

I just push a fresh wip-bootstrap 6d975c901, and all differences between
native x86 and --system=i686-linux are now gone!
As discussed in bug-32749 I'm now using thunks for packages that use
package-with-explicit-inputs. So, I reverted my previous `...leak'
commit rewrites.
Also, I changed more inputs to chunks (some ld-wrapper*) and I slightly
rewrote static-bash-for-glibc; just to make sure to look at
%current-system at run time, rather than load time.

This new wip-bootstrap is rebased on core-updates, I think it's ready for a
rename to core-updates-next but wanted you all to have a look first.

I haven't addressed this.

I went through all patches, cleaned them up ad added comments.
Thanks!
