New submission from Gerrit Holl <gerrit.h...@gmail.com>:
In the [`enum`
module](https://docs.python.org/3/library/enum.html#supported-sunder-names)
documentation, some of the `_sunder_` names are on `EnumMeta`, whereas others
are on the produced `Enum` class:
> 8.13.15.3.2. Supported `_sunder_` names
> * `_name_` – name of the member
> * `_value_` – value of the member; can be set / modified in __new__
> * `_missing_` – a lookup function used when a value is not found; may be
> overridden
> * `_ignore_` – a list of names, either as a list() or a str(), that will not
> be transformed into members, and will be removed from the final class
> * `_order_` – used in Python 2/3 code to ensure member order is consistent
> (class attribute, removed during class creation)
> * `_generate_next_value_` – used by the Functional API and by auto to get an
> appropriate value for an enum member; may be overridden
Experimentally, it appears `_name_` and `_value_` are on the `Enum` class,
whereas the others are all on the `EnumMeta` class:

This is not clear from the documentation.
