the state of the %bif?

I would never go back to using indicators to deal with a situation that
(hopefully) will not often happen. Also how often do you need to know - you are
normally going to have logic conditioned on the BIF all you have to do is watch
which way it flows.  On those occasions when I _have_ to know, or need to
"force" a logic condition, I simply assign the BIF to a field and use that.

I believe Hans commented previously that they were looking at ways of making the
BIFS "debuggable" in the future.
