There is the obvious question this may work automatically if all the values of
enum type are in the form 2^n and fall back to the GDB default way otherwise.
Also it would not display parentheses if the variable value is just 2^n.

GDB could pass the type as `enum NAME' instead of just `NAME' to the pretty
printer regex.


Thanks,
Jan
