nest-type-value?

Maybe expand that description a bit, it's not really accurate for
"array-nest"?

typo - attribute

Do you mean the "name of the enumeration" or the "name of the
enumeration constant"? (per C99 concepts) I'm a bit confused? I guess
you mean the "name of the enumeration constant" though I agree most
people probably don't know the names from C99 (I had to look them up too
for the sake of being precise here ...)
