Ok, if nobody disagrees, i will upload ocaml-3.06 to the archive. This
would take time, as it is a new package and such, but it should be
transparent for the rest of the ocaml stuff.

I don't believe any of the other solutions can really be solved without
intervention of people outside the debian-ocaml team (us that is),
intervention which we are very unlikely to get, and get responded by a
fix the RC bugs (in postgresql, libvorbis, etc ...) :(((
