Hi,

As noted in my reply to j-b, my 2 cents is that this is still problematic.

No C, C++, or ABI (C or otherwise) standard, to my knowledge, guarantees
sizeof(bool), so passing a struct around which contains one may lead to
ABI problems, as far as I can tell.

Whether we think it's real or theoretical, though, is up for debate.

I do know at least one (oddball) compiler that used to set bool==int,
while most set bool==char.
