As we talked about before; is this really correct? !is_power_of_2(0) =
true while (0 & (0-1)) = 0.
        
size = 0 is also covered by the next two conditions, so the overall value
does not change.
      
Yes, but is it meant to state that 'size' is not a power of two?
    
What else can it mean?
  
What about !one_or_less_bit()?
Obviously not.

Andreas.
