While I can't guarantee that, that is the case most of the time. Put it this
way - it will be true if your compiler will take a structure with one member
and no virtual functions and make sizeof(structure)==sizeof(member).
I think I will add a feature to allow the programmer to specify the underlying
enum size, too (i.e. int, long, etc.)
As I said, the implementation is both space and time efficient.
