Do you have any particular objection to taking the next step of removing
enum InhOption in favor of making inhOpt a bool?  It seems to me that
stuff like

-       bool        recurse = interpretInhOption(rv->inhOpt);
+       bool        recurse = (rv->inhOpt == INH_YES);

just begs the question of why it's not simply
       bool        recurse = rv->inh;

Certainly a reader who did not know the history would be confused at
the useless-looking complexity.
