No, it isn't. If you want to be correct, use "make bootstrap".
cvs-update was introduced as a very useful shortcut, which takes half

One (minor) problem is that it regenerates subdirs.el unconditionally,
so whatever targets that depend on it will be remade as well.
But these are all minor considerations, admittedly.
