i think there should be more.  i find them more readable, clearer intent, and 
harder to screw up.  whereas passing around 0/1 everywhere gets funky (and i 
think the code looks funky already).

it's a little hard to tell if it was meant generally or that specific case.  
but if Karel prefers they not be used, then the codebase should reflect that.
