Current beta cannot bootstrap itself

[Keruspe]

When trying to build the current beta (2bc1d40) using itself, the build of bootstrap fails with

error: the item `Seek` is imported redundantly

I'm not sure we support bootstrapping a beta with itself. @Mark-Simulacrum?

[mati865]

Once beta is promoted to stable it will be bootstrapping stable with stable which Linux distributions do a lot so it'd be nice.

[Mark-Simulacrum]

We try to support distro's efforts to support self-bootstrapping; the PR (#60273) already posted looks fine to me. I'll leave a comment to that effect there as well.
