Summary: Nested structures with enums fail to compile

Initial Comment:
In C, if a nested structure contains an enumerated type, the resulting SWIG-generated file contain duplicate symbols which prevents from compiling.

For instance:
typedef struct {
   struct {
      int a;
      enum { red, blue } b;
   } c;
}

SWIG creates a new typedef for the inner struct:
typedef struct {
        int a;
        enum {
            red,
            blue
        } b;
    } c;

Since there is also an #include of the original type in the generated code, this results in a duplicate definition of "red" and "blue".
