True.

Yes, it's a bigger change now ... but with your approach, I'm a little
bit afraid that we'll forget the reason over the years, so one day in
the future somebody might wonder what's this "enum status" magic all
about and more or less revert your patch again... so if we take your
patch, I think there should either be some comments in the code as
explanation, or we might want to add builds with clang to the
.travis.yml and gitlab-ci.yml files to make sure that we keep building
the kvm-unit-tests with clang, too.
