No it isn't. In C enumerators are just integers, but in C++ they have the same
type as the enumeration type they belong to.

I don't know why this is different. I would expect them to be consistent.

In this case c=1 so there's no change in value when casting to bool. The
warning is for uses of integers other than 0 and 1.
