Ask the compiler to use a single bit for storing true / false values,
instead of wasting the size of a whole int value.
Tested with gcc 5.4.0 on x86_64, and the compiler produces the expected
Assembly (similar to the Assembly code generated when explicitly accessing
the bits with bitmasks, "&" and "|").
