If the only possible values are 0 and 1, I can either add assertions
to check that at run time, or make the compiler check it for us by
confining its value to a single bit. A compile-time check seems more
robust...

...assuming of course I don't mess it up like this, not noticing that
it's an int that needs to be changed to an unsigned. I'll fix this
up.
But the fact that you flagged the struct change -- would you prefer
some commit message explanation of how it's related, or was it more
the case that you felt it was a different kind of change and wanted it
split out into a separate patch? I'm suspecting the former but am not
quite sure.
