Well, it doesn't look like the Oracle compiler likes stdbool.h unless under
specific circumstances:

configure:4965: checking stdbool.h usability
configure:4965: /opt/developerstudio12.6/bin/cc -c -m64 -xarch=sparc -g -Xa
-errfmt=error -erroff=%none -errshort=full -xstrconst -xildoff
-xmemalign=8s -xnolibmil -xcode=pic32 -xregs=no%appl -xlibmieee -mc
-ftrap=%none -xbuiltin=%none -xunroll=1 -xs -xdebugformat=dwarf
-I/usr/local/include -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE
-D_TS_ERRNO conftest.c >&5
"/usr/include/stdbool.h", line 42: #error: "Use of <stdbool.h> is valid
only in a c99 compilation environment."

That seems...limiting.
