No objection from me. We'd then be able to remove the partial
declaration of that enum.

A few additional thoughts:

I am wondering why we are not seeing this on other platforms...

utils.c:throw_perror_with_name doesn't appear to be used anywhere except
in utils.c:perror_with_name, which is nothing more than a wrapper where
errcode is set to GENERIC_ERROR. I am wondering if we want to keep that
function around, or either make the function static, or inline its code
in perror_with_name...

I'd probably investigate why and when the function was introduced
before making a decision, but I am running out of time for today...
