Is there a subroutine that can convert an enum value to a strings, so that I
can do something like ShowMessage(EnumToStr(enumValue))?

Just use writestr ?

program testw;

type
  mytype = (a,b,c);

var
  d : mytype;
  s : string;

begin
 d:=a;
 writestr(s,d);
 writeln(s);
end.

This works in trunk, and I think that even str() works with enumerateds in
trunk.
