in dom/DOMNode.hpp, getNodeType() returns a short instead of a NodeType enum

           Summary: in dom/DOMNode.hpp, getNodeType() returns a short
                    instead of a NodeType enum
           Product: Xerces-C++
           Version: 2.1.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: DOM
        AssignedTo: xerces-c-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: Jean-Daniel.Fekete@inria.fr


Whereas the documentation says:
    /**
     * An enum value representing the type of the underlying object.
     * @since DOM Level 1
     */
    virtual short           getNodeType() const = 0;

the returned value is actually a short.  I don't understand the reason not to
have a NodeType here since it would enable a little bit of type safety.
