Here is my example, using "clang version 3.7.0 (trunk 235602)".  Note that
the call to Func is not present in the AST.

enum MyEnum
{
};
void Func(MyEnum v);
int main()
{
 Func(SomeEnumValue);
 return 0;
}




clang.exe -Xclang -ast-dump test.cpp
test.cpp:7:7: error: use of undeclared identifier 'SomeEnumValue'
        Func(SomeEnumValue);
