===================================== END OF MODERATOR'S COMMENT
ISO/IEC 14882 Second edition, section C.1.5 [diff.dcl] contains an example:
enum color { red, blue, green };
color c = 1; // valid C, invalid C++
However, the second line is not valid C.
To be valid C, it would have to read:
enum color c = 1;
