Here we go:

    function get_declared_enums() {
        $enums = [];
        $exts = get_loaded_extensions(false);
        foreach ($exts as $ext) {
            $re = new ReflectionExtension($ext);
            $classes = $re->getClasses();
            foreach ($classes as $class) {
                if ($class->isEnum()) {
                    $enums[] = $class->name;
                }
            }
        }
        return $enums;
    }

Porting this to C is left as an excercise for the reader. ;)  Hint:

Note that the terminating folding marker is backwards.

For reasons that have been stated elsewhere in this thread, I don't
think so.
