Short description

Lua2 backend unable to parse boolean value from bit

Environment

• Operating system: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS x64
• Software version: PowerDNS Authoritative Server 0.0.2463gc40b447
• Software source: official repo

Expected behaviour

Lua2 backend should be able to parse boolean from bit value

Actual behaviour

Lua2 backend expects array of tables as result of certain methods such as 'dns_lookup' or 'dns_get_domain_keys'. When returning the result and using bit (0/1) values for 'auth' ('dns_lookup') or 'active' ('dns_get_domain_keys') the backend fails with '(boost::bad_get: failed value get using boost::get)'

Steps to reproduce

Using example from https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns/blob/master/modules/lua2backend/regression-tests/lua2-dnssec.lua line 78 table.insert(ret, { name = qname, type = newQType(k), content = row, ttl = 60, domain_id = d_id, auth = true }) will work but table.insert(ret, { name = qname, type = newQType(k), content = row, ttl = 60, domain_id = d_id, auth = 1 }) will fail

Can you show some code so we understand what 'bit values' are?
