[ENet-discuss] Using enet with C++

[Lee Salzman]

There is no real point in naming them enet_foo.h for the simple reason
that that was why I put them in their own directory to begin with!
A directory is a namespace. There is no need to fake namespaces by
crimes against underscores. enet/enet_foo.h is a tad too redundant for
my tastes. :)
