Subject: [PATCH] autoconf: detect the broken bool in OpenWatcom 1.8

OpenWatcom 1.8 has a C99 mode, which implements _Bool and
<stdbool.h>.  Unfortunately the implementation is broken, and doesn't
let _Bool be implicitly converted to integer (as required by the C99
spec).  Detect this case in autoconf.
