 mono will segfault.  if the (string) cast is removed, things work as expected.

+The code is not legal. Removing the cast fixes it. This is what csc says:
+
+~ $ csc /nologo bug31853.cs
+bug31853.cs(10,38): error CS0030: Cannot convert type 'Driver.FooEnum'
+to 'string'
+
+mcs compiles it and should not.
