This is not used for anything, as far as I can tell.

BTW, do you think we can use bindgen as binary now? We used to need a very up-to-date version of bindgen because it wasn't mature enough. Maybe we can now use a binary installed via bootstrap instead now, as we don't need to bump it so often? Doing so should help improve the build time.

Yes, that's bug 1560981.
