I started using ``bool`` (stdbool.h) when I saw it specified in PEP 7
(https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0007/#c-dialect).  If it is a
problem then I think it should be answered relative to PEP 7.  I'm not
sure what the best route is though.  Personally, I'd argue that if
it's in C99 then it should probably be standard at this point. :)
However, I'm not opposed to going back to plain int.  (And I know
there are definitely a number of old-school folks who prefer plain
int. :) )
