Confusion in SimpleStatus.get_current_bands return

[Bruce A. Johnson]

I'm trying to obtain modem status information using the Python API, and 
I'm confused about the return values for the get_current_bands() method 
in the SimpleStatus object. My reading of the document leads me to 
expect a tuple containing an array and a count of the items in it, but 
I'm seeing a tuple containing a single enum value and a count greater 
than 1.

Code:

> band_list, count= status_obj.get_current_bands()
> logger.debug('band_list: {!r}, count: {!r}'.format(band_list, count))

Output:

> mmg[937]: MMGCmd status[425] band_list: <enum 469902384 of type ModemManager.ModemBand>, count: 21

My C skills aren't that great, but it looks to me like 
mm_simple_status_get_current_bands is returning the Right Stuff. I'm 
building ModemManager 1.18.4 in OpenEmbedded off of the Yocto dunfell 
branch. Does anyone have suggestions of what else I need to look at?
