Here goes my biggest commit.  s/boolean/bfd_boolean/ s/true/TRUE/
s/false/FALSE/ practically everywhere in binutils,
My strong recommendation:

s/true/1/
s/false/0/
s/boolean/int/

This is C.  Pretending C is Pascal does not make it so.
It makes for one more magic thing binutils-hackers have to learn,
and get wrong.
