yes, i guessed that, i thought ocamlyacc would be a bytecode executable also,
but apparently not. ocamlrun is the virtual machine, and thus not subject to
being written in byte code (executed by itself ?) and the .opt files are
native code versions of ocamlc (the bytecode compiler) and ocamlopt (the
native code compiler). 

I will close this bug as soon as i upload a new package, maybe tomorow ...
