        Good catch.

        FYI, this is fixed in the latest development source tree, so the
next formal release (Real Soon Now, I hope) will carry the correction.
It's the inverse of your patch, though. It seems that somebody did an
exercise in resolving the Bool/Boolean discrepancies, and changed all
the *other* declarations to "Boolean".
