true is not necessarily '1' and false is not necessarily '0',
therefore the correct fix would be to assign 'false' to this variable.

Furthermore you've submitted this in such a way that it cannot be
applied alongside the other atm:he patch you submitted.

This is why when you submit multiple patches to the same file, you
must group them and submit them relative to eachother and in a
specific order.
