Damn, you are right. I fixed it better.
The MaxValue is used in many places for enum and set properties while
GetEnumNameCount() is not used anywhere.
There are other similar bugs. At least these 2 in propedits.pp look fishy:
- procedure TSetPropertyEditor.GetProperties
- subfunction IsPropInSet under function IsInteresting

OK, it was not a bug in FPC code. Sorry.
