Guillem pushed a commit where many usage of integers 0/1 were replaced by
booleans (type bool, true/false). But he probably missed some places to
update.

Attached is an untested patch. I'm just not sure whether the check
of pifp->valid was important.

Keeping it is not really possible because "-1" evaluates neither like true
nor false in the tests that follow.
