I think the code is much better off without DISABLE/ENABLE at all.

As has already been pointed out, you cannot read and write _without_
being aware of the fact that DISABLE is 0 if you want to write
readable code, i.e. instead of "if (able == ENABLE) do this;", you
would want to say "if (able) do this;".
