Afaik only in case of reading a boolean everything <> 0 is true (for

defined as an enum with values (false, true)
Well, the last minute change in 2.0.4 by Florian was needed because
constructors return non-1 true cases, i.e.:
if constructor_call then
... results actuall a pointer to the object, or nil.
Even though it's a dirty construct by Borland, it does not contradict
what I wrote.
