But as of version 1.5 Wordpress will attempt to add those enclosure fields for you by magic. When linking to a media file directly, WordPress would realize it and add an enclosure automatically. This attempt would always fail however if you were linking to a media link that was really a 302 redirect.
With the tweaks however wordpress 1.5+ will be able to make sense of a 302 and correctly add the enclosure.
Again, its not an issue if you're manually adding the enclosure field. It may or may not be of any value, but I offer it here in case someone has been trying to figure it out.

Funny, but I use Ourmedia and I don't seem to have a problem with
this. But then, I hand-code the enclosure field. Dunno if this makes a
difference.
iTunes gets our Wordpress RSS feed and the redirect issued by Ourmedia
doesn't seem to stop it from downloading the file. Don't know what
effect it might have on others who take the feed.
