But if someone compiles from source anyway, it's probably easier to just 
apply the patch (well maybe not this one, but once it's halfway done).


Martin made a remark on bugzilla: "Don't change the name of the legacy 
enums, that just complicates the patch".

While I'd spontaneously agree with that, I am only now starting to 
realize what a bad decision it was, along with reordering them which is 
much worse still:
I hadn't considered plug-ins at all.
'neutralizing' the enums for XCF is pretty pointless if all existing 
plug-ins break.
Of course we could do it for plug-ins, as well, but then it should be 
*all* enums... ouch.

So it's back to original order and naming for the legacy enums. But I'm 
still torn on XCF. I'd really dislike going back to writing enums to 
files -- but objectively, there isn't much of a point to keep it up.
