Here's an example (the same without --impacted-interfaces):

$ build/tools/abidiff --impacted-interfaces --leaf-changes-only
tests/data/test-abidiff-exit/test-leaf2-v?.o
Leaf changes summary: 1 artifact changed
Changed leaf types summary: 1 leaf type changed
Removed/Changed/Added functions summary: 0 Removed, 0 Changed, 0 Added function
Removed/Changed/Added variables summary: 0 Removed, 0 Changed, 0 Added variable

'struct ops at test-leaf2-v0.cc:1:1' changed:
  type size hasn't changed
  there are data member changes:
    type 'void (int)*' of 'ops::munge' changed:
      pointer type changed from: 'void (int)*' to: 'char (long int, bool)*'

  one impacted interface:
    function void register_ops(const ops&)
$ echo $?
0

Exit code 0 is wrong. We should be counting and reporting changed
types and using the count as part of the exit code.

I think it's OK as-is. There are no instances of local "const bool" in
the code. This bool is only used in the next expression.
