	True, I hadn't thought of that. Too bad, it would have been  a

PS: Just so we're sure what I'm agreeing about here: automatic
manifest constants probably can't work (unless we drop the "auto"
type inference which is too useful to remove). OTOH, I still think
that using "enum" for them is a poor choice.
