Milestone:  Boost 1.40.0          |   Component:  filesystem

----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
 The UNIX system header <rpc/types.h> defines a macro

 #define enum_t  int

 This clashes with the enum_t member in
 boost/detail/scoped_enum_emulation.hpp

 As a consequence there is a compilation error in Boost.Filesystem if any
 of the RPC headers is included before boost/filesystem/operations.hpp

 This is a regression that can easily be fixed by renaming enum_t to
 enum_type in boost/detail/scoped_enum_emulation.hpp

 the test program is trivial:

 #include <rpc/types.h>
 #include <boost/filesystem/operations.hpp>
