I am trying to build lablgl with ocaml-3.07 and encountered the first
problem :(((

ocamlc-3.07 -pp camlp4o will not work, you need to use ocamlc-3.07 -pp
camlp4o-3.07, which is awkward, and means a modification of all the
build scripts, until we have the wrapper script that is.

Maybe ocamlc could be patched to add the -3.07 suffix itself ?

Or simply have all the build scripts modified so they use a $(CAMLP4O)
and not do it in a hacky way right now, but then, maybe other packages
are less broken than lablgl.
