[IronPython] [python] Difference in 1.1 and 2.0 with Dialog Result

[Davy Mitchell]

Yes my initial code was flat wrong :-)

I was using
   if fbd.ShowDialog():
      etc...

For reference, the IPY1.1 result:
 >>> bool(DialogResult.OK)
False
 >>> DialogResult.OK.value__
1

> but it is still odd that this enumeration now evaluates to False.
Yes, very odd but I guess it is never safe to rely on the value of an enum.
