           Summary: allow deprecating enum values
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.6.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: c
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: drepper.fsp@gmail.com


The deprecated is nice and it's use should be expanded.  Sometimes enum values
have to be deprecated and it would be useful if one could write this:

enum { newval, oldval __attribute__ ((deprecated)) };

Any use of 'oldval' should provoke the usual warning.
