sql type reported for enum

I have some metadata utilities that query jdbc column metadata,
and I'm fairly certain that my enum colums, which used to be reported at
Type.OTHER, are now being reported as Type.VARCHAR.

That is,
rs.getInt("DATA_TYPE")
returns Type.OTHER

The type names, however, seem to be correct. Thus,
rs.getString("TYPE_NAME")
returns the actual enum name.

Not only does my code now behave differently, but I also
see that 3rd party libraries (DBUnit) are also now missing
enum columns.

Thus, DBUnit's PostgresqlDataTypeFactory code for returning enums never
gets hits because the sqlType is never Types.OTHER:

if (sqlType == Types.OTHER)
if ("uuid".equals(sqlTypeName))
return new UuidType();
else if ("interval".equals(sqlTypeName))
return new IntervalType();
else if ("inet".equals(sqlTypeName))
return new InetType();
else
{
// Finally check whether the user defined a custom
datatype
if(isEnumType(sqlTypeName))
{
if(logger.isDebugEnabled())
return new GenericEnumType(sqlTypeName);
}
}

So did something change recently in the drivers? I've recently upgraded
my database from
9.1 to 9.4, along with my jdbc drivers.

Thanks,
Ross
