Well, as long as we're bikeshedding and optimizing the pointless... ;-)

% cat true.s
        .text
        .globl _start
        .type _start, @function

_start:
        pushl $0
        pushl $0
        movl $1, %eax
        int $0x80


% cat false.s
        .text
        .globl _start
        .type _start, @function

_start:
        pushl $1
        pushl $0
        movl $1, %eax
        int $0x80
