[C++-sig] enum strangeness...

I noticed something today about enums that I've wrapped with
boost.python. Here's a small example.
#include <boost/python.hpp>
using namespace boost::python;
struct Foo {
enum Bar { Baz };
};
BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(Mod) {
scope fooScope = class_<Foo>("Foo");
enum_<Foo::Bar>("Bar")
.value("Baz", Foo::Baz)
.export_values();
}
Now, in Python I can refer to the enum values by saying 'Mod.Foo.Baz'
which is what I expect, but it seems to recur in a strange way. I can
also say:
Mod.Foo.Baz.Baz.Baz.Baz.Baz.Baz.Baz.Baz
for as long as I like. This seems relatively benign, but strange. Is
it expected?
Thanks,
Alex
