I suppose you mean _Bool to be a datatype (not variable). I was under 
the impression that it was all done in the headers but apparently not. 
Its nice to know there is a boolelan datatype. Although, it is wierd 
they chose _Bool instead of bool. I guess, that would break code which 
had already defined a bool macro. Talk about legacy stuff...
