+ Similar bugs are likely with other compilers as well; this file
+ wouldn't be used if <stdbool.h> was working.
+ So we override the _Bool type.
+ If !@HAVE__BOOL@:
+ Need to define _Bool ourselves. As 'signed char' or as an enum type?
+ Use of a typedef, with SunPRO C, leads to a stupid
+ "warning: _Bool is a keyword in ISO C99".
+ Use of an enum type, with IRIX cc, leads to a stupid
+ "warning(1185): enumerated type mixed with another type".
+ The only benefit of the enum type, debuggability, is not important
+ with these compilers. So use 'signed char' and no typedef. */
