You need a '*' at the start of this line.

Personally I'd consider a tristate here, to allow the initialization to
be the same regardless of the sense of the condition in the 'if'.

If you keep it a boolean, you should use FALSE and TRUE instead; those
are in C89, and 'false'/'true' aren't.

If you make either of those two changes, +1 to commit. (If further
changes are needed, they can be made in subsequent commits.)
