That's probably the best option if you want to maintain backwards
compatibility. It won't be perfect (e.g. if someone tries to add
both CURLE_FTP_USER_PASSWORD_INCORRECT and CURLE_FTP_ACCEPT_FAILED to
the same switch statement), but anyone making such a modification could
simply remove any references to the obsolete entries at the same time.
