Because in testing there is ocaml 3.07, and there is no chance that ounit you
have uploaded and built with ocaml 3.08 will work with it. The whole aim of
this stuff is to have all the stuff migrate together in one lump.
But you are right, ideally, we should have a script which sets the right
substitution variables or something in both the .files, the .dirs and the
control file.
