Ooh, I like this one for enum machine_mode. The relevant header
(machmode.def) is already machine-generated, so it would be a fairly
small change. And doesn't in any way interfere with Gabriel's cleanups
to use the enumeration type instead of 'int', which is good.
Be a hell of a lot of breakage to sort through, though. Unless we've
got a volunteer with a whole lot of time, I don't think this is
happening for 4.1. Oh well.
