; The file $SRC/cmd/hal/hald/hald_marshal.list uses "BOOL" and under an updated glib (which is in the new OmniOS) should be "BOOLEAN".

Note that BOOL was deprecated a long, long time ago in glib. I haven't been
able to find an exact reference but it's showing up as deprecated in the
documentation from 15 years ago.

Glib recently rewrote the marshal generator in python and now it emits
these deprecation warnings, hence the change in output.
