commit 6e21828743247270d09a86756a0c11702500dbfb
Author: Richard Knutsson <ricknu-0@student.ltu.se>

    [PATCH] Generic boolean

    This patch defines:
    * a generic boolean-type, named 'bool'
    * aliases to 0 and 1, named 'false' and 'true'

    Removing colliding definitions of 'bool', 'false' and 'true'.
