Doing "NUM" things like this makes it valid to assign the NUM value to
a variable of this enum type, and importantly, the compiler cannot
warn for it then. So this is a bit of an antipattern.

Is it nicer to have "bool" for these?

This one probably can use a comment.

assert() compiles to nothing if NDEBUG is defined at the point you
include the header. That shouldn't happen, but please just make a
fatal() or similar function for this?

char *buf;
asprintf (&buf, "%s:%05d", bifs[curr_bif].idname, curr_bif);

Maybe you can do the DEBUG thing inside the diag function itself, so
that you do not need the macro check at every use? Or use a different
function, even. (That has nothing to do with this patch in particular
of course).
Okay for trunk. Thanks!
