IMO this is probably a feature. Thinking about it like this:

int foo(enum Bar x) {
	switch(x)
          ...
}

int baz (int a)
{
   foo(a);
}

It's not good, but people do it. Also constructing enums via & and | etc. It'd be nice to be able to get the name of whatever it is that the code generator actually produced :)
