by adding (temporarily) the definitions of TRUE and FALSE to

hundreds of *uses* of TRUE and FALSE (not yet, anyway) but, at the
very least, by adding two lines to types.h, you can delete all
those redundant *definitions* and make sure that nothing breaks.
(it shouldn't, of course, but it's always nice to be sure.)

Doesn't seem very worthwhile, and it legitimises this definition
we're trying to get rid of.


hmmmmmmmm ... apparently, you totally missed my use of the important
word "temporarily":

No, I didn't.
