Here you are: a small OCaml script that add or remove entries from
/usr/lib/ocaml/ld.conf.
Note that:
- the script makes distinction about a trailing "/", so
  "/where/you/want/" is different from "/where/you/want" (I really
  don't like playing with regexp in OCaml), anyway I think that the
  standard format of ld.conf does not want trailing slashes
- the perl implementation will be one order of magnitude shorter and
  simpler :) (but sure, we are packaging OCaml and not perl :)))

Cheers.
