Description : bigstring intrinsics and fast blits for OCaml
The OCaml compiler has a bunch of intrinsics for Bigstrings, but
they're not widely-known, sometimes misused, and so programs that use
Bigstrings are slower than they have to be. And even if a library got
that part right and exposed the intrinsics properly, the compiler
doesn't have any fast blits between Bigstrings and other string-like
types.
This is a new (transitive) dependency of ocsigenserver.
