Then you simply didn't understand how it really works.
In order to keep the hand installed stuff, you simply need to add stuff,
not in the /usr/lib/ocaml/ld.conf, but in /etc/ocaml/ld.conf, as it is
written in the comment on top of the previous file.
Additionnaly, /etc/ocaml/ld.conf is a conffile, so it should survive
even a desinstallation of ocaml and a reinstallation of it.

Mmm, maybe we should make findlib aware of the /etc/ocaml/ld.conf file ?
