I don't care who rebases on top of the other, but maybe Markus will have

But the code base already overwhelmingly relies on C's implicit
conversion of pointer to a boolean context, as it requires less typing;
being verbose doesn't make the code base any easier to read. However,
since HACKING doesn't say one way or the other, I won't make you change.
