When returning a boolean from a function, bool is the best we can do.

In a struct, a 1-bit field is better (unsigned int foo : 1).

I'm fine with returning a bool from functions that are logically boolean, but we shouldn't change the convention for functions where "0" indicates success and "-1" indicates an error.
