Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

I consider this as transitional style, for simpler converting to Argument 
Clinic without changing the behaviour. In future it can be replaced with bool.

But the bool converter has a downside. It is harder to extend it. We can't add 
a support of say a tuple, or callable, or string, or ternary logic value 
without potential breaking some code. I propose first convert all semantic 
boolean ints to the boolint converter, and then, after fundamental analysis, 
replace boolint with bool if there is no any sense to extend concrete parameter.
