Deprecating member enumberators does not appear to work in any compiler
version I've tried.  It is however possible to deprecate member constants
(except for clang++ which issues no warning but compiled cleanly).  See the
documentation for DUNE_DEPRECATED [1].  Turning the enum into a member
constant (i.e.

  static const std::size_t size = ...;

instead of

  enum { size = ... };

) shouln't lead to any problems.
