Can I just check if you mean that we should convert XDL_MERGE_DIFF3 and 
friends to be an enum, or are you happy to leave them as pre-processor 
constants and have parse_conflict_style_name() return an int? I don't 
mind changing them to be an enum but I'm not sure it buys any type 
safety as C is happy to implicitly convert enums and integers. It would 
also raise the question of whether we should be converting the merge 
flavor and diff algorithm constants to enums as well.

Thanks
