You are right. And I wrote that it's a bug. But this is what you can easily get from using boolean types. This is example has not been invented by me. I don't even claim that this was good programming style - all I want to say is that from what I have seen the boolean types are not a panacea; they cause new problems as well.

I don't disagree with any of that, but I don't see what your point is. Every time you use a new feature, there are also new ways to use it incorrectly. By your logic, we should use no new features of the C language that were invented in the past 20 years.
