It used to be, before C99 (and newer) became as prevalent as they are
today, to portably use bools, you might include code like
#ifndef __bool_true_false_are_defined
#ifdef _Bool
#define bool _Bool
#else
#define bool char
#endif
#define true 1
#define false 0
#define __bool_true_false_are_defined 1
#endif
Nowadays, including stdbool is the way to go.
