This doesn't work 47 with this substitute. With this substitute, only the values 0 and 1 48 give the expected result when converted to _Bool' or 'bool'. 49 50 Also, it is suggested that programs use 'bool' rather than '_Bool'; 51 this isn't required, but 'bool' is more common. */ 52 53 54 /* 7.16.

But if we do 69 this, values of type '_Bool' may promote to 'int' or 'unsigned int' 70 (see ISO C 99 6.7.2.2.(4)); however, '_Bool' must promote to 'int' 71 (see ISO C 99 6.3.1.1.(2)).
