Most "types" in C are basically voluntary documentation rather than actual types :-/

So, what does rust call a data type which I'd normally call an 'enum' ?

Aye, though one colleague here argues that "since in C you tend to use enums for that, it's perhaps not an awful name"

I'm not convinced. It sounds like a Haskell algebraic data type. Enums should be able to enumerate all their possible values.
