What if the comparison is

  (unsigned) (expr_of_signed_enum_type) >= 0

?  (With GCC, the enum will have a signed type if one of its values is 
negative.)  That seems worth a warning - the point of the patch as I 
understand it is to avoid warning for

  (expr_of_unsigned_enum_type) >= 0

because being unsigned there is an implementation-defined matter.
