Ok, this one i was thinking of including anyway.

Could i apply this modifications to the ocaml packae, or will it break a
lot of things ?
We still need the parsing types.

I would be happier if we could isolate the needed .cmi.

These would not be needed if i merge the modifications, right ?
So we only need Config, Clflags and the cmi in the above listing, and
the modifications. Including the modifications in the ocaml package may
not be recomendable or even possible though.

Well, i could just include it in the ocaml package.
Ralf, could you also tell us if you still need the ocaml-source, and
what file you need (and for what packages).
