We can avoid any such issues in a two step process:
1. Create aliases to the new color in rte_meter.h, rte_mtr.h and rte_tm.h at this point.
2. Announce deprecation of the existing color enums in favor of the new unified color enum at this point and remove during next release.

Example:
//file "rte_meter.h"
#include <rte_color.h>

#define rte_meter_color rte_color
#define RTE_METER_GREEN RTE_COLOR_GREEN
#define RTE_METER_YELLOW RTE_COLOR_YELLOW
#define RTE_METER_RED RTE_COLOR_RED

Makes sense?
