Makes sense, I think. As Vincent suggested, it would be good to document somewhere what the convention is (values 0 or ~0). And maybe change to 0 and 1 convention, since that fits better with assigning it from the return value from mpn_sub_n, and it seems generally more consistent with how we handle boolean values elsewhere. But may need further changes, like to abs_sub_add_n, also noted by Vincent. Regards, /Niels -- Niels Möller. PGP key CB4962D070D77D7FCB8BA36271D8F1FF368C6677.
