I'm not a fan of using `call(P)'. I'd just go for

succeeded(P) :-
	( if P then yes else no ).

well, actually I'd write it like Fergus did, using `->' instead of `if',
but that is just what I am used to, since the emacs mode I used for
Mercury didn't indent `if' expressions correctly, but worked fine if you
used a `->'.
This isn't an issue anymore anyway, since said mode didn't indent
according to the guidelines set for mercury developers - I've been forced
to use vim. ugh.
