I think that's it. I must have misread the spec. Or maybe there are
implementations that use "true" and "false", I can't remember why I
did it that way.
I think the only change that is needed is to showBool. I've fixed
that in darcs. Let me know if it fixes the issue for you, and if so
I'll make a new release.
