It seems that your report is about clzip.

Note that 'in_statsp' is a pointer, and according to the C99 standard:

  6.3.1.2 Boolean type
  1 When any scalar value is converted to _Bool, the result is 0 if the 
value compares equal to 0; otherwise, the result is 1.

and

  6.2.5 Types
  [...]
  21 Arithmetic types and pointer types are collectively called scalar types.

Therefore, using 'in_statsp' as a bool argument is valid.

Best regards,
Antonio.
