Bug#167439: [fixed in gcc-3.x] stdbool.h broken

[Falk Hueffner <falk@debian.org>]

Package: gcc-2.95
Version: 1:2.95.4-12
Severity: normal

"bool" from stdbool.h doesn't have proper semantics with 2.95:

falk@juist:/tmp% cat test.c
#include <stdbool.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    bool b =3D 23;
    if (b =3D=3D true)
        puts("good");
    else
        puts("bad");

    return 0;
}

falk@juist:/tmp% gcc-2.95 -W -Wall -ansi -pedantic test.c && ./a.out
bad

falk@juist:/tmp% gcc-3.2 -W -Wall -ansi -pedantic test.c && ./a.out =

good

As 2.95 seems to lacks _Bool to implement this properly, stdbool.h
should probably be removed, rather than silently generating (pretty
evil IMHO) bad code.
