   > For backwards compatibility will you consider patching old releases (I 
think prior to arrow 57) with the new enum so they don't fail? Not sure if 
these are generally maintained?
   
   The problem actually lies with the Rust implementation of the Thrift 
generator, not the code in this crate. There would need to be a fix for the 
former, and then we could up the thrift version and regenerate.
   
   Another possibility is just hand editing the generated file. Since it's a 
back port I don't think we need to worry too much about maintainability. The 
question then is how far back do we go? And downstream users would still need 
to update the version they're using.
