Oops, v. sorry, no.  I should have said

  http://anubis.dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC22/open/n2794/

or

  http://anubis.dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC22/WG14/www/docs/n843.pdf.gz

which was the Final Committee Draft, and what was voted on.  While
the oh-so-short macro |__bool_true_false_are_defined| is still
there, the nature of |bool| was changed quite dramatically.  C now
gains a proper boolean type, |_Bool|.  <stdbool.h> then defines
|bool| to expand to |_Bool|.  Anyway, as Jonathan said, the check
would be for the version of C the compiler is for, not whether
<stdbool.h> has been included.
