I would personally argue that if using the correct conversion functions (which are here to specifically avoid this type of warning) causes issues, this code should probably not be using enumerated types at all since the entire point is to enforce semantic correctness, not just be a special way to represent small integer values, especially in the case where the CLK values are completely different numerical values in various enumerated types. I think enumerated type casts are ugly and defeat the purpose of them but that's obviously just my opinion :) Hopefully we can get some clarity on this soon.
