Since you are back porting this change to 4.8, I would also like to make a 
suggestion and include Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion support in the same manner.

Thanks,
Yan Shapochnik

Yes, the warning needs to be fixed.

But I don't have any problems with adding the new enum in a patch level 
release. The only thing it can break is that your code won't compile against 
4.8.1 anymore if you use it. This is really one of these cases where we should 
make a small exception to our rule of not adding any API to a patch level 
release.

Please go ahead and back port the change to 4.8.

Cheers,
Lars
