We cannot use the "bool" type in userspace at least, because
sizeof(bool) depends on the compiler. So the interface must use an

What do you mean ? There are ABIs, and we expect all used compilers to
follow common arch ABI. Old psABIs date back to time where _Bool
did not existed yet, but now it is ubiquitious. E.g. both i386 and
amd64 require _Bool have a representation by single byte, with the
byte alignment.
Can you give exact examples of the inconsistencies, on any platform,
regardless of our tier ?
Hi,
I was reading this article:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4897844/is-sizeofbool-defined
And is says:
sizeof(bool) is not required to be 1.
