Sure I can fabricate code that fails, but that wouldn't necessarily be
worth fixing, because it's fabricated and doesn't address anyone's real
problems.
We could try to make this work, but we're probably not going to rename
our bool type, so we'll have to work out some reasonable workaround.
But that's hard to do without having some practical example to work
with.
