Nullable Column Associated with Enum Not Marked as Nullable

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create table with nullable column with foreign key relationship to 
table that will be generated as an enum.
2. Generate code.
3. Review generated entity's column mapped properties. 

What is the expected output? 
  public Nullable<RoleType> UnionRoleTypeId

What do you see instead?
  public RoleType UnionRoleTypeId

What version of the product are you using?
v.2.1.655

Please provide any additional information below.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Using the 2.1.667 build, the enum is made nullable but the On<entity>Changing 
param 
is not getting the nullable, so it generates a 

"The best overloaded method match for '...On<entity>Changing(<type>)' has some 
invalid arguments..."

sample code:

public Nullable<PartyType> PartyTypeId
{
    get { return _partyTypeId; }
    set
    {
        if (_partyTypeId != value)
        {
            OnPartyTypeIdChanging(value);
            SendPropertyChanging("PartyTypeId");
            _partyTypeId = value;
            SendPropertyChanged("PartyTypeId");
            OnPartyTypeIdChanged();
        }
    }
}

...

   partial void OnPartyTypeIdChanging(PartyType value);

which should be

   partial void OnPartyTypeIdChanging(Nullable<PartyType> value);

I think...

In addition, I am still getting the type conversion error on code like this:

public PractitionerPerson PractitionerPerson
{
    get { return (serializing && !_practitionerPerson.HasLo
    set
    {
        PractitionerPerson previousValue = _practitionerPer
        if (previousValue != value || _practitionerPerson.H
        {
            SendPropertyChanging("PractitionerPerson");
            if (previousValue != null)
            {
                _practitionerPerson.Entity = null;
                previousValue.PractitionerSpecialtyList.Rem
            }
            _practitionerPerson.Entity = value;
            if (value != null)
            {
                value.PractitionerSpecialtyList.Add(this);
                _personId = value.PersonId;
                _roleTypeId = value.RoleTypeId;
            }
            else
            {
                _personId = default(long);
                _roleTypeId = default(RoleType);
            }
            SendPropertyChanged("PractitionerPerson");
        }
    }
}

specific error lines are:

   _roleTypeId = value.RoleTypeId;

   _roleTypeId = default(RoleType);

where those lines have to be:

   _roleTypeId = (long)value.RoleTypeId;

   _roleTypeId = (long)default(RoleType);

(Yeah, I'm the idiot using BIGINT for enum ID values. :) )
