I like you proposal in http://lists.mysql.com/commits/132357.
It's much easier to read this way.
I have only one small doubt:
usually we don't use enums for flag-alike things.
On the other hand, enums are better than just integer #defines,
e.g. they make gdb sessions easier.
Enum value (QT_TO_SYSTEM_CHARSET | QT_WITHOUT_INTRODUCERS)
is not defined. Shouldn't we at least define a enum value for
(QT_TO_SYSTEM_CHARSET | QT_WITHOUT_INTRODUCERS) ?
Thanks!
