gcc version 4.7.2 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.2-1ubuntu1)

u-boot "true" and "false" hush commands are copiled incorrectly in uboot v2013.04-rc2 
(c8142633e169665b246352918df5b76fd243bb71)

when I run help in u-boot it show:

# help
0       - do nothing, unsuccessfully
1       - do nothing, successfully
?       - alias for 'help'
base    - print or set address offset
...

Instead "0" and "1" there should be "false" and "true" command.

This happen when stdbool.h from C99 compiler is included in cmd_test.c and then true and false macros are expanded to 1 and 
0. Quick fix for this is adding #undef before U_BOOT_CMD:


Without above patch and with gcc 4.7.2 it is not possible to use u-boot on Nokia RX-51, becuase it has true and false commands 
in preboot env.

Please fix this problem in u-boot v2013.04.

I confirm the problem.

York, your commit 472d546 "Consolidate bool type" is causing this
issue, so I suggest you send a fix, please.

Please check for other, similar use cases.

Thanks.
 

Best regards,

Thanks for catching it. I am working on the fix now.

I found the cause but I don't know the best fix. Please help.

This is cause by common/cmd_test.c. It has command "true" and "false".
Shall I undef true and false before the U_BOOT_CMD in this file, or use
True and False as the names? If there is a better way to do that, please
enlighten me.

If you rename commands "true" and "false" to "True" and "False" 
you will break all code which using it. Now RX-51 board do not 
booting due to missing "true" and "false" commands...

The problem is with how U_BOOT_CMD is constructed.  We pass in the
command name as the first arg, but don't stringify it until some
levels later.  I can't think of a better work-around than #define
_STDBOOL_H at the top, with a big fat comment.
