Sounds sensible.

Or just enforce it with some casts?

Those are caused by the interactions of stdbool.h from MSVC and the
definitions from c.h. I am pretty sure that there is an unnecessary
double-inclusion happening in the perl scripts of src/tools/msvc, but I
did not take the time to dig into it, and it happens that they are
actually harmless if you look at what msvc ships as definition of true
and false.
