Trying to compile some Open Inventor stuff on a SGI with a
cfront 2.1 derived compiler I ran into trouble.
SGI's Open Inventor header files frequently define enums as members and
use the SAME name.
cfront complains about that.
Any comments about what behaviour (member enums in a per class namespace
versus in a global namespace) is standard would be appreciated.
