MEOS public headers reference bool but do not include stdbool.h; when libclang parses them without system header paths it silently demotes every bool return and bool * pointer to int / int *, losing the distinction that every binding depends on. Prepending a minimal stub with `#define bool _Bool` (plus the size_t typedef libclang needs to honour the WKB-size accessors) keeps the spelling intact, and a regex-based normaliser in _c_spelling rewrites the resulting `_Bool *` back to `bool *` so the IDL matches the source code. Before the fix all 641 bool-returning functions and the bool * out-parameters of tbox_*_inc / tbool_value_at_timestamptz / tbool_value_n / tbool_values landed in meos-idl.json as int.
