sigh... I can fix it up this time but it's such a pointless waste to
send patches with problems when a trivial, easy-to-run script can tell
you how to fix them.

not a big deal either way.  I prefer my way because if I have

	if (something)
		func(lots, of, parameters, all, the, same, except, 1);
	else
		func(lots, of, parameters, all, the, same, except, 0);

then it's not always so clear what the difference between the two
function calls really is without reading carefully.  By putting
!!something into the call:

	func(lots, of, parameters, all, the, same, except, !!something);

it becomes obvious how the value of something is used.
