I've already run into that problem, so I wrote an inline function, 
enum2int(), to do a static_cast to int when I have to print one. But 
that aside, why does BOOST_CHECK(mUse == UsedFor::NOTIFY_INPUT); appear 
to work.

Some of your documentation implies that BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL(L, R) is 
equivalent to BOOST_CHECK(L == R), but it doesn't act that way, and 
Eclipse's expansion of BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL() shows a lot more than L++R.
