It produces a deprecation warning in flufl.enum because flufl.enum
specifically supported this earlier. It should not be supported in the
stdlib implementation.
The __call__ syntax has been repurposed for the convenience API:
>>> Animals = Enum('Animals', 'ant bee cat dog')
>>> Animals
<Animals {ant: 1, bee: 2, cat: 3, dog: 4}>
>>> Animals.ant
<EnumValue: Animals.ant [value=1]>
>>> Animals.ant.value
1
The aforementioned deprecated syntax refers to __call__ with a single
arguments (the convenience API by definition requires more than one).
