Summary:                    [patch] MySQL ENUM Type Not Detected
Description: 
The raw values for the AMAFLAGS column are detected by a switch case that
checks all numeric types. Unfortunately ENUM is not in the list. ENUM is
technically a numeric type. So if you have the column definition:

  amaflags ENUM('DOCUMENTATION','BILLING','OMIT')

This will work. However, if you have the definition:

  amaflags ENUM('info','outbound','inbound')

This will *not* work and the column will be set to NULL due to an
unparsable value. By adding the ENUM column type instead, both syntaxes
will work!

<i>Finally, from your point that "if the enum specifies the possible values
out of order" there will be an issue, I really don't think this should be
considered an issue. The CREATE TABLE syntax is given with the module and
this is what is used.</i>

It could be used, but it is not necessarily the only option.

<i>Why, if your point is valid, is there a test in the module for numeric
types in the AMAFLAGS field?</i>

For legacy reasons; the amaflags was once specified by this backend as an
integer field, and we want to remain compatible with that implementation.
