Please, show compiler flag[s] to enable warning[s] from gcc about

Would not the compiler treat 42 as a Boolean expression (as opposed to an integer expression) that evaluates to true and set foo accordingly. I.e. there's only a problem here if foo ends up with the value 42 instead of the value true.
