1. TRUE/FALSE
Do we want such defines? If so, TRUE/FALSE, or true/false, or
True/False, or ...?
should we start using bool ...?
2. BIT16 vs BIT(16) vs (1 << 16) vs 0x10000
I don't think it makes sense to go for a single one of these (0x3ff is
certainly more readable than BIT11 | BIT10 | BIT9 | BIT8 | BIT7 | BIT8
| BIT5 | BIT4 | BIT3 | BIT2 | BIT1 | BIT 0), but I doubt we need both
BIT16 and BIT(16).
BIT16 is a constant. BIT(16) is a chance for things to go badly wrong, e.g.
BIT(x-y) might produce some very strange problems. I kind of prefer the constant.
