Well, I dicovered ocaml-doc listed in main's overrides and
non-free's overrides as well.

See ftp.fr.debian.org:/debian/indices/override.sid.non-free.gz
    ftp.fr.debian.org:/debian/indices/override.sid.main.gz

The principle of overrides is overriding the control file, when
ftp-master do not agree with some parts of the control file.

I suspect something broken.
