Hmm, that doesn't look right: You can't really rely on an 'enum' type to
have a specific size, especially not the same size as a pointer, in portable
code.
IIRC on many architectures it defaults to 'int' rather than 'long', and
it might also be 'short' on architectures that default to enums being
the smallest integer type that fits.
