But anyway, there will be some time before glibc get really fixed, the
-6 version will still have (at least) 2 problems, one is about some
non-free stuff in it, and the other is about a gcc bug. And there will
be christmas and all, and possibilities for new errors.

Well, this one got created by ocaml-ldconf in a postinst, but never
removed, so it is normal. I will erase it in postinst or something such
in -15.
