char is actually a very awkward integer type; you can't even be sure whether
it's signed or unsigned, and it has a lot of additional aliasing baggage
and properties.  We do not recommend that it be used for anything other than
aliasing and characters.  *sigh*.

The best way to bool in C9X will probably be 'bool'.  :)
