Considering that doesn't actually work with the reference implementation
(AutoNumber.__new__ is never called) ... no.

print(Color.red._value)
print(int(Color.red))

---------- Run Python3 ----------
()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\home\repos\mercurial\ref435\ref435.py", line 292, in <module>
    print(int(Color.red))
TypeError: __int__ returned non-int (type tuple)

implies something ongoing.
