Practically a bool occupies one byte. Not sure if there is a standard about that, though. So change as is will take 2 bytes. But if you code it as bit fields, they are getting packed. With suggested change two bools will take only one byte and later you can add 6 more bools in the same manner without growing the structure.

I actually really would like us officially to promote this style instead of using pre-processor defines for flags.
