It fixes the fact that gnulib's stdbool module works around C89
compilers that lack a native _Bool type, and therefore might assign a
value other than 1 into what is supposed to be 0 or 1.  But since we use
other C99 features, it probably doesn't hurt us to assume that
assignments to bool are handled correctly by the compiler.
