On modern installations of Windows, the Program Files (x86) folder is 
read/read-execute only and requires UAC approval to be written to, in general.

Looking at my machine, I see that only setup.ini and soffice.ini were created 
at the time of 4.1.2 installation (2015-11-10 for the one I am looking at) and 
the remainder, including bootstrap.ini, were copied directly from the setup 
itself and have earlier time stamps (mostly 2015-10-21 when the RC was built).

That answers the question about whether these are actually produced/used.  
Indeed they are.

Thanks, Damjan, this clears up a great deal.
