I see, but you've splitted the sources into "gui", "core", "net" etc. in Qyoto 
svn, did you do that by hand? ;-)

The definiton is in QtCore/qnamespace.h
enum ToolBarArea {
        LeftToolBarArea = 0x1,
        RightToolBarArea = 0x2,
        TopToolBarArea = 0x4,
        BottomToolBarArea = 0x8,
        ToolBarArea_Mask = 0xf,
        AllToolBarAreas = ToolBarArea_Mask,
        NoToolBarArea = 0
}

Then there is
Q_DECLARE_FLAGS(ToolBarAreas, ToolBarArea)
which seems to map ToolBarAreas to ToolBarArea. If we want a enum, the easiest 
way would be probably to make kalyptus look if there's a enum and if not, 
look for a Q_DECLARE_FLAGS.

I'd use QApplicationExtras.cs, would be easiest to understand, in my opinion.
