As it stands now, if the Slong module is not supported on a platform,
there is no mention of it in any .mli. (The .mli is preprocessed to
include only those modules which are available). So, I think its okay,
since any program which is in debian(and thus seen by the autobuilders)
will need to handle this by some form of conditional compilation.
