FWIW: I've been flying this patch in the snapshot builds ever since, and nobody
complained. So it's probably not immediately broken ;-)

The problem is much bigger than enumerated types though, all subrange types are
fundamentally incompatible between FPC and Borland. I don't remember if your
patch handles those correctly as well? That probably needs a few test cases?
