Bug description:  Boolean values from a dbase file are not read corectly

Reading the boolean fields from a dbase database does not work. 

I cannot submit a dbase file example but is easy to see whenever your dbase
file has a boolean field the returned field is equal with 0 regardless of
the value of the dbase field.

I used a simple loop to read all records from the dbase file.

$dbf=dbase_open("/tmp/dbase_file", 0));
$num_rows=dbase_numrecords($dbf);
$nf      = dbase_numfields($dbf);

while ( $j<$num_rows) {
    $k=0;
    $rec=dbase_get_record($dbf, $j);
    while($k < $nf) {
      print "$rec[$k],";
      $k++;
    }
    $j++;
    print "<br>";
}


Any boolean value read by  dbase_get_record returns 0  which is wrong.
