Patch to register wnck constants as flags instead of enums

It looks like someone fixed bug 597319 without realising that the error was actually in libwnck (bug 590534) so we've gone from python trying to use flags while wnck was (incorrectly) using enums to python trying to use enums when it should be using flags.

Ping? Can this be committed?

The last gnome-python code changes took place in April 2011:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/archive/gnome-python/log/

This project is not under active development anymore.

This project got recently archived in GNOME Git.

It is currently unlikely that there will be any further active development.

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again. If you are interested in maintainership, inform https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list

gnome-python wrapped GNOME 2's core libraries which are all deprecated and not under development anymore. 
For Python in GNOME 3, see https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/PyGObject and its gobject-introspection approach.
