Definition of enum on Android:

```auto
enum SomeEnum { case one, two, three } // Fails on Android
enum SomeIntEnum: Int { case one, two, three } // Fails on Android
enum SomeIntEnum: String { case one, two, three } // Compiles

```

doesn’t compile unless raw value is String or project is .NET.

Test project attached.
