In Bug 352485 someone mentioned that the anonymous enums cause warnings when used in some cases. Give that Bug 8781 is wontfix I suggest that these now become static const declarations. The only reason enum's were used was that they weren't widely supported at the time. Should be simple tweak to the XPIDL C++ generator.
I would prefer the solution suggested in bug 262000. Then the compiler warning will flag a programming error.
Ugh, if forgot about that bug. Duping to bug 262000. static const is an easier fix from the standpoint of XPIDL code, but the ideal fix would be anonymous enums.
