Done.

Couldn't figure it out easily, sorry. Autoconf is deep voodoo to me.

The <enum> construct generates very wordy symbols. (Example: enum  
{ XCBWindowClassInputOutput = 1 } XCBWindowClass; where previously  
one only had to deal with InputOutput). You could argue that this is  
a feature, though perhaps not for masks. Maybe an option to prefix  
the members just with "XCB" and not the full name of the enumeration?
