Bug description:
  Bug 447479 got fixed in libwnck (the constants should have been
  registered as flags, not as enums) but a workaround also got put in to
  python's wnck bindings (register constants as enum instead of flags).
  So this has created a sort of mirror image of the original bug with
  effectively the same symptoms.

  Fixed on natty;  needs back-porting for any supported release where
  doing:

    python -c "import wnck"

  produces a warning or error.

  TEST CASE:
  0. install python-wnck
  1. run python -c "import wnck"
  2. verify what you get a WARNING
  3. install python-wnck from -proposed
  4. repeat (1)
  5. verify that this time there is no warning
