json-c header files pollute the global namespace with this:

  #undef FALSE
  #define FALSE ((json_bool)0)

  #undef TRUE
  #define TRUE ((json_bool)1)

  #define hexdigit(x) (((x) <= '9') ? (x) - '0' : ((x) & 7) + 9)
  #define error_ptr(error) ((void*)error)
  #define error_description(error)  (json_tokener_errors[error])
  #define is_error(ptr) (ptr == NULL)

so I find json-c really unappealing to use.

Daniel
