I do not have a strong opinion against this approach, but if
something can take only one of two values, wouldn't it make more
sense to express it as a single boolean, I wonder.  Then there is no
need to invent a cute HAS_SINGLE_BIT() macro, either.

"commit and leave it open" cannot be expressed with such a scheme,
but with the HAS_SINGLE_BIT() scheme it can't anyway, so...
