Is _Bool part of the new C standard? It certainly is not
part of the initial ANSI C standard. There have been a number
of commonly used preprocessor definitions for YES/NO and
TRUE/FALSE.

As we all know, preprocessor definitions are not types.

My guess is that _Bool is an enum, which is not actually
a type in C either. It is merely an alias for int values.
