Er, it's already a bounce message, so there's nobody to bounce it to.
The comment in the code says:
/* If this is an error delivery message for which there is no other
errors address, and it has been failed because of a retry timeout, ignore it.
This case happens when a delivery error message times out after (auto)
thawing, since the normal handling of failures for such messages is to defer
and freeze them. */
