I have assigned this issue (bug 499) to myself. I plan to do the following:
1) Re-enable the BOOLEAN datatype by removing the parser short-circuit.
2) Re-enable the TRUE and FALSE literals.
3) Add appropriate unit tests.
Cheers,

Of course any new feature should have tests written for it. I didn't
mean that someone should hack out a line of code to enable a feature
without writing tests for it.
Can't someone at IBM resurrect the tests for the boolean type? I would
expect them to be accessible in whatever source code control system
IBM uses. Or perhaps IBM considers the reinstatement of the disabled
features to be against their interests.
