          False = bool(0, _create=1)
          True = bool(1, _create=1)
+ 
+     The values False and True will be singletons, like None; the C
+     implementation will not allow other instances of bool to be
+     created.
+ 
+     All built-in operations that are defined to return a Boolean
+     result will be changed to return False or True instead of 0 or 1.
+     In particular, this affects comparisons (<, <=, ==, !=, >, >=, is,
+     is not, in, not it), the unary operator 'not', and built-in
+     functions like hasattr(), isinstance() and issubclass(), the dict
+     method has_key(), string methods endswith(), isalnum(), isalpha(),
+     isdigit(), islower(), isspace(), istitle(), isupper(), and
+     startswith(), and the closed attribute of file objects.
