Description of changes

This reduces closure size of the built package by about a third.

The only reference to gaucheBootstrap in the built package was in $out/share/gauche-0.98/0.9.13/package-templates/configure, where it is incorrect: anyone using the template shipped with the gauche package would have unintentially used the bootstrap version of gauche instead.

Alternatives

Simply leaving the interpreter in that file as /usr/bin/env gosh might also be okay, since presumably it is meant to be executed by a user in a normal environment.

We might also consider a use of remove-references-to to guard against regressions here, but i'm a little undecided on that, as it would possibly break the package's output instead of making it fail to build entirely.
