4.?BSD lint muffs enum pointer arguments (with fix)

[Arthur David Olson]

Index:		cmd/mip/optim.c Fix

Description:
	4.?BSD lint gives bogus diagnostics for enum pointer arguments.

Repeat-By:
	Create a file named "try.c" with these lines in it:
		enum foo {a,b,c};

		try(bar)
		enum foo * bar;
		{
			try(bar);
		}
	Then use the command
		lint try.c
	and note the output:
		try, arg. 1 used inconsistently	try.c(5)  ::  try.c(6)

Fix:
	The problem occurs because pass 1 of the C compiler changes pointers
	to enums to other ilks of pointers; while this simplifies code
	generation for the compiler, it messes up "lint"s efforts to check
	types.  The fix is to conditionalize a line of code in "optim.c".

	Here's the line from "optim.c" involved; the trade secret status of
	the code involved precludes a clearer posting.

#ifdef OLDVERSION
	if( (t=BTYPE(p->in.type))==ENUMTY || t==MOETY ) econvert(p);
#else
#ifndef LINT
	if( (t=BTYPE(p->in.type))==ENUMTY || t==MOETY ) econvert(p);
#endif
#endif
