+- We never use the XDG version of basename(). glibc defines it in
+  libgen.h. The only reason to include that file is because dirname()
+  is needed. Everytime you need that please immediately undefine

+  using the XDG version!

+- Use the bool type for booleans, not integers. One exception: in public
+  headers (i.e those in src/systemd/sd-*.h) use integers after all, as "bool"
+  is C99 and in our public APIs we try to stick to C89 (with a few extension).
