Yes, we should be consistent. I'm totally fine with using ints, just
wanted to know if there is a reason why they are not used.
I think the bools in check disk only work because the gnu libs are
already included. I'll move them to int tonight.
But we could add a hint to the guidelines to avoid bools/true/false for
consistency purposes and instead use int/TRUE/FALSE.
