I've wasted many hours doing most of these things, so I would be interested in seeing your solution.
At the very least, could you post some information on the approach you used to keep the forward/reverse mappings updated automatically? Also, were you able to do all of this without balooning the size of your "enums"? I've never found a way to do that....
You make a good point. We should want sizeof(other_enum)==sizeof(c_enum). Not everyone needs to map between strings and enumerations
