Ouch.  Because of the fickle nature of OCaml's ABI, all OCaml libraries 
have to be rebuilt for every version bump.  While there not be much 
OCaml code in the distro, I have dozens of libraries in Ports which need 
to be rebuilt.  Next time, could you please give me some rebuild time 
before stabilizing a new version of OCaml?

Also, could you enable labltk?  I haven't tried 4.00 yet, but 3.12 
required this patch:
