 the code looked simpler that way ( i did not actualy finish the 
 code, just comments here and there, and some code on top of 
 that !!!). The only issue that i can see, is for nested enums, the 
 parent_builder is not a 'ModuleBuilder' but a 'Typebuilder'.
 Why did you choose to implement the enum type with a 'TypeBuiler' 
 and not an EnumBuilder ?

+I remember going with EnumBuilder myself in the beginning but the
+issue I ran into was precisely what you mention - nested enums cannot
+be handled at all ! Basically, there's no TypeBuilder.DefineNestedEnum
+or even TypeBuilder.DefineEnum; so we have to make Enums global [using
+ModuleBuilder.DefineEnum] which of course, screws things up.
