[Mono-dev] Strange enum issue

[Neale Ferguson]

I really need some advice or direction on this…

If I make the following change to external/ikvm/reflect/Projection.cs:

--- a/reflect/Projection.cs
+++ b/reflect/Projection.cs
@@ -71,11 +71,17 @@ namespace IKVM.Reflection
 
                static WindowsRuntimeProjection()
                {
+Console.Error.WriteLine("WindowsRuntimeProjection - {0} {1} {2}",
+ProjectionAssembly.System_Runtime,
+ProjectionAssembly.System_Runtime_InteropServices_WindowsRuntime,
+ProjectionAssembly.Count);

and build and use it on x86_64 it will output:

WindowsRuntimeProjection - System_Runtime
System_Runtime_InteropServices_WindowsRuntime Count

However, on s390x it outputs:

WindowsRuntimeProjection - System_Runtime 1 5

I'm trying to work out why there is this difference and whether it is
responsible for a crash later during the build process.

The enum looks like:

                enum ProjectionAssembly
                {
                        System_Runtime,
                        System_Runtime_InteropServices_WindowsRuntime,
                        System_ObjectModel,
                        System_Runtime_WindowsRuntime,
                        System_Runtime_WindowsRuntime_UI_Xaml,

                        Count
                }

If I play around with the order of entries, only the one listed first gets
printed as the enum name and the others get the integer value.
