ABORT and ERROR happen to have the same value, but come from differnt
enums.  Use the one from the correct enum.

Yikes. :)

This is a good argument for naming these SIGNED_TAG_ABORT, etc. But this
is obviously an improvement in the meantime.

In C enum values aren't the types of the enum, but I'd thought someone
would have added a warning for this:

    #include <stdio.h>

    enum { A, B } foo = A;
    enum { C, D } bar = C;

    int main(void)
    {
        switch (foo) {
          case C:
            puts("A");
            break;
          case B:
            puts("B");
            break;
        }
    }

But none of the 4 C compilers (gcc, clang, suncc & xlc) I have warn
about it. Good to know.

Asked GCC to implement it: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=87983

There is -Wenum-compare, but it does not seem to catch this (and is
enabled by -Wall). It (gcc, at least) does catch:

	enum foo { A, B };
	enum bar { C, D };

	int f(enum foo x)
	{
		return x == C;
	}

but converting that equality check to:

	switch (x) {
	case C:
		return 1;
	default:
		return 0;
	}

is not (which is essentially the same as your snippet). So I think the
bug / feature request is to have -Wenum-compare apply to switch
statements.

Clang has -Wenum-compare-switch, but I cannot seem to get it to complain
about even the "==" version using -Wenum-compare. Not sure if it's
buggy, or if I'm holding it wrong. This patch seems to be what we want:
