No. You can create a separate table that maps some, say integer, key to a,
say, string. That's usually how ENUM stuff is ported away from MySQL (also
known as TheirSQL). Alternatively you can also pull something like this:
CREATE TABLE test ( ... a text check (a in ('value1', 'value2', ...)), ...
)
You get the idea.

That "add new type stuff" isn't all one might think it is either.
