          Issue ID: 19399
           Summary: Different Conversion Rules for Same Value and Type --
                    Enum

void foo(byte v) { writeln("byte ", v); }
void foo(int v) { writeln("int ", v); }

enum A : int {
    a = 127,
    b = 128, // shh just ignore this
}

void main()
{
    A v = A.a;
    foo(A.a);  // byte 127
    foo(v);    // int 127 should be byte 127
}


Per https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10560 the desired type to call is
"byte".  So the bug should be fixed so that both the function call the
foo(byte) overload.
