And broken.  And unnecessary. :)

>>> class Foo(Enum):
...   a = 'a'
...   b = 'b'
... 
>>> int(Foo.a)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: __int__ returned non-int (type str)

...remove Enum.__int__()...

>>> class Bar(int, Enum):
...   a = 1
...   b = 2
... 
>>> int(Bar.a)
1

So yes, Enum.__int__() should be removed.
