Hello again,

Well a idea just hit me ...

What about :
camlimages ( normal )
camlimages-lablgtk ( just contains the part linked with lablgtk )
camlimages-lablgtk2 ( just contains the part linked with lablgtk2 )

camlimages-lablgtk conflicts with camlimages-lablgtk2

During the build you begin to build with lablgtk, then switch to
lablgtk2 and only rebuild part depending on this switch. It will save
compilation time.

This way we can keep the two version.

In fact, there is only one modules that depends on lablgtk...
