The bool type is supported in C23, but debug info still says _Bool.
...
$ cat test.c
bool b;
$ gcc -std=c23 test.c -c -g
$ readelf -wi test.o | grep -i bool
<39> DW_AT_encoding : 2 (boolean)
<3a> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x52): _Bool
...
Clang does use bool:
...
$ clang -std=c23 test.c -c -g
$ readelf -wi test.o | grep -i bool
<2a> DW_AT_name : (indexed string: 0x4): bool
<2b> DW_AT_encoding : 2 (boolean)
...
