Often, the first bootstrapped is the bare minimum to get basic functionality available, to then build upon what features you can support.
Its been a while, and I think it was gcc 7.x timeframe, and IIRC, you had to have at a min, gcc 4.x available to bootstrap, and it took something like 3 separate bootstrap iterations to get the final compilers was like 4-6 hours if memory serves.
