Changing that would be "harder" than it seems because "ret = ret || 
handler(...)" is wrong, and "|" is even more unnatural than "|=" (so 
much that clang warns about it).

In fact I wonder if "|=" with a bool might end up warning with clang, 
which we should check before applying this patch.  It doesn't seem to be 
in the original commit[1], but better safe than sorry: Nick, does clang 
intend to warn also about "ret |= fn()" and "ret &= fn()"?  Technically, 
it is a bitwise operation with side-effects in the RHS.
